Pretty much, yeah. ;-)

I'm just thinking about the time it took to set the camera up and wait
for the right moment. Lightning photos are always interesting to look
at, but high-speed video is something else....

You know what might be cool?
TIME-LAPSE PHOTOGRAPHY.
I have no idea how you'd do this automatically, but hypothetically all
you need is an ordinary still camera and the patience of a POV-Ray user...

I've done that before.... I'll have to dig up the stills and rebuild the
movie one of these days. I watered a plant, then filmed it over a period
of 24 hours. It's amazing how much a plant moves during the day.

I'm not sure how a time-lapse photo of something so quick would work....

Oh, some cameras you can control via USB (I think all DSLR and some
others) and you could set up a laptop and do it like that (considering it
doesn't rain and your laptop doesn't run out of power during that
time :)). For Nikon (and for Canon as well probably) there are also some
remote controls which have a setting for taking a picture in certain
intervalls.
There was a cool webpage of someone doing HDR Timelapse photography with
a moving camera. He had mounted the camera on an electrified telescope
mount and could control the camera as well as the telescope mount. I have
to search, if I can find a link.

No, I mean... High-speed photography requires specialised equipment.
Time lapse only requires a regular camera. So do time lapse [of
something else].
But since you comment... take a long exposure of a night sky, and you
get quite an impressive effect. Ever see those photographs with 25
lightning strikes in the same image? Long exposure. Several flashes
captured in a single frame. (This *also* requires special equipment,
mind you...)
