Variable frame rate (VFR) (AVCHD mode only)
This camera can perform time-lapse (undercrank) and high speed (overcrank) shooting, which are film
techniques, without the need for a frame rate converter.
•
VFR shooting is only possible when shooting with [REC FORMAT] set to [PH 1080/24P]/[PH 1080/30P]/
[PH 1080/25P]. To set VFR, set the pre-rec function to [OFF]. When the pre-rec function is set to [ON],
VFR cannot be set. VFR shooting does not work in the 720P mode.
•
When VFR is set, the INTERVAL REC, relay recording, and SIMUL REC functions are automatically set
to [OFF], and [TCG] is automatically set to [REC RUN].
•
This function cannot be used with INTERVAL REC, relay recording, SIMUL REC, and pre-rec functions.
•
The frame rate cannot be changed during recording.
•
If lower frame rate is set, accessing the memory card after recording takes longer. Before ejecting the
memory card, confirm that the memory card access lamp is not flashing.
24P mode:
Shoots 24 frames/second in the native mode. A 24 frames/second image is recorded into 24 frames as
video signal.

The recording frame rate can be set to any one from the 23 frame rates given in the following table.
There is a slight difference between the displayed recording frame rate and the actual recording frame
rate. Refer to the table below. The top rows of the table are recording frame rates (fps), the bottom rows
are frame rates (fps) actually recorded.
