Slow & Quick Motion Recording 67

When the camcorder is in HD mode and one of
the following video formats is selected (page 40),
you can set a frame rate for recording different
from that for playback:
NTSC Area/NTSC (J) Area
HQ 1920/29.97P, HQ 1920/23.98P, HQ 1280/
59.94P, HQ 1280/29.97P, HQ 1280/23.98P
PAL Area
HQ 1920/25P, HQ 1280/50P, HQ 1280/25P
By recording at a different frame rate, you can
obtain a smoother slow-motion or quick-motion
effect than with slow-speed or fast-speed
playback of a material recorded at the normal
recording speed.
Example
When the video format is HQ 1280/23.98P,
recording with a frame rate between 1 and 23 fps
provides a quick-motion effect in playback, and
recording with a frame rate between 25 and 60 fps
provides a slow-motion effect in playback.
Notes

activated in SD mode.
• Slow & Quick Motion recording cannot be
made if a setting which includes “HDV” or
