Shooting super-slow-motion movies (High Frame Rate)

By shooting with a higher frame rate than the recording format, you can record a smooth super-slow-motion movie.

  1. MENU→ (Camera Settings1) → [Shoot Mode] → [High Frame Rate] → desired exposure mode.

    The shooting setting screen will be displayed.

  2. MENU → (Camera Settings2) → [HFR Settings] → Select the desired settings for [Record Setting], [Frame Rate], [Priority Setting] and [REC Timing].
  3. Point the camera at the subject and adjust settings such as the focus.
    • You can also change other settings, such as focus mode, ISO sensitivity, etc.
  4. Press the (Enter) button.

    The shooting standby screen will be displayed.

    • [STBY] will be displayed in the bottom left of the screen during shooting standby. While [STBY] is displayed, you cannot adjust the exposure or focus settings including manual focus. To change these settings, press the (Enter) button again to return to the shooting setting screen.

  5. Press the SHUTTER/MOVIE button.
    When [REC Timing] is set to [Start Trigger]:
    Movie capturing (shooting) starts. When the SHUTTER/MOVIE button is pressed again, or when the recordable duration of time has elapsed, movie capturing ends and the camera starts to record the captured movie to the memory card.
    When [REC Timing] is set to [End Trigger]:
    Movie capturing ends and the camera starts to record the captured movie to the memory card.

Note

  • Sound will not be recorded.
  • The movie will be recorded in XAVC S HD format.
  • It may take time for recording to finish after you press the SHUTTER/MOVIE button. Wait until the display switches to the shooting standby screen to start shooting again.
