Shooting

When editing images using the conventional
24P [2:3] conversion system, the images of
different frames are expanded for the [BoCe]
[CoDe] [FoGe] [GoHe] frames in the figure,
causing the picture quality to further deteriorate.
Under the 24P advanced conversion system,
images with minimal picture quality deterioration
in the 24P mode can be obtained by weeding
out the [BoCe] [FoGe] frames in the figure.
Furthermore, when an editing system that
supports the advanced conversion system is
used, editing can be performed with minimal
picture quality deterioration compared with the
24P mode.

O

When an editing system that supports the
advanced conversion system is not going to
be used, shoot in the regular 24P mode.

Progressive shooting

The progressive mode can be selected using
the PROGRESSIVE item (see page 42) of the
setting menu SCENE FILE screen.

30P mode:

Images are shot in the progressive mode at
30 frames per second.
The 30 frames per second images are
converted into 60-field interlace signals, and
the resulting video signals are output or
recorded.
Shift-free, high-quality still pictures can be
obtained in this mode.

24P mode:

Images are shot in the progressive mode at
24 frames per second.
The 24 frames per second images are
converted into 60-field interlace signals using
the regular [2:3] conversion system, and the
resulting video signals are output or recorded.
Cinema-like images can be obtained in this
mode.

24P advance mode:

Images are shot in the progressive mode at
24 frames per second.
The 24 frames per second images are
converted into 60-field interlace signals by the
advanced conversion system, and the
resulting video signals are output or recorded.

Bear in mind the following points when
shooting in any of the progressive modes.

O

The gain cannot be set to 18 dB.

O

When the progressive mode has been
selected, the sync signals of the images are
temporarily disturbed.
Furthermore, no images are output for
approximately 3 seconds.

O

A shutter speed setting of 1/50 (OFF) or
1/60 is recommended.

O

Since the images are recorded in 5-frame
increments when shooting in the 24P mode
or 24P advance mode, the timing at which
recording starts may be delayed slightly.
