Normal speed shooting for commercials/drama
production
When producing videos for display on the
television screen, a frame rate of 30 fps (30
frames per second) is standard (x1). By using the
f
ollowing settings, playback with the same quality
as broadcast is possible. Commercials and music
videos can be recorded at film like high quality, and

Undercrank shooting
This is a quick motion effect that can be applied to
scenes showing the flow of clouds, people standing
in the middle of crowds, and kung fu, etc. For
example, a quick motion effect of x2 can be gained
if the VFR recording frame rate is set to 12 fps
when recording with the 24P recording format that
specifies the playback frame rate.

This is a slow motion effect that can be applied to

videos produce smooth, high quality slow motion.
