Default Federer Contact Point

How long after contact does Federer look at the contact point? In videos you can't really tell unless it is in slow motion. Is it a full second or what?

He watches the contact point all the way through the follow through. And he probably hits the ball earlier in front of him than any other player on tour.

He watches the ball in my opinion too long but it works for him.
