Fast Motion 2 times faster when set to 12fps in 24p mode, 2.5 times faster when set to 12fps in 30p mode Adjusting the Speed to Show Actors in Fast Motion A fast-motion effect can be used to compensate for the slower movements of the actor wearing heavy costumes. For this purpose, the speed is increased only slightly to retain natural motion. The shutter speed is not usually changed at all. Comical Effects Fast motion can be used to create an unrealistic, entertaining effect in a comedy action scene. Extremely fast speed is often combined with computer graphics. The shutter speed is varied over a wide range according to the intended effect. Special-Effect Scenes A fast-motion effect can be used to create various effects. For example, it can make the main character appear to be stationary in a bustling crowd, or make a waterfall or river flow like moving silk. Here, the shutter speed is selected from a wide range. CG-Like Effects If a car's tail lamps or building lights are recorded with the shutter fully open while slowly sweeping the camera, a blurring effect results, rendering an image similar to a computer-generated image. 30
