Shooting Use of Variable Frame Rate (VFR) Normal speed shooting for movie production When producing videos for screening, a frame rate of 24fps as used in film projection is standard (x1). By using the settings below, playback with the same quality as the film projection is possible. Film like high quality video can be produced through 1080p progressive and CINELIKE Gamma. Recording format Recording frame rate (REC FORMAT) 1080P/24P (native recording) (FRAME RATE) 24 fps* Normal speed shooting for commercial/drama production When producing videos for display on television screen such as HDTV/SDTV broadcast, a frame rate of 30fps is standard (x1). By using the settings below, playback with the same quality as broadcast is possible. Commercials and music videos can be recorded at film-like high quality, and at a frame rate suitable for television broadcast. Recording format Recording frame rate (REC FORMAT) (FRAME RATE) 1080/30P (2:2 Pull down) 1080/25P 30 fps* 25 fps* Overcrank shooting This is a slow motion effect that can be applied to scenes such as car chases, action, climaxes, etc. For example, a slow motion effect of 1/2 can be gained if the VFR recording frame rate is set to 60fps when recording with the 30P recording format that specifies the playback frame rate. 1080P progressive movies produce smooth, high quality slow motion. Recording format Recording frame rate (REC FORMAT) 1080/24P 1080/30P 1080/25P (FRAME RATE) Less than 25fps* Less than 32fps* Less than 26fps* * The recording frame rate (FRAME RATE) can be set to one of 20 values. (page 14) 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 12fps when recording with the 24P recording format that specifies the playback frame rate. Recording format Recording frame rate (REC FORMAT) 1080/24P 1080/30P 1080/25P (FRAME RATE) Less than 22fps* Less than 28fps* Less than 24fps* 9
