Slow & Fast Motion Recording49Slow & Fast Motion RecordingWhen you record MP4 movies, the camcorder can record with a frame rate (shooting frame rate) thatis different from the playback frame rate. When you record with a shooting frame rate that is faster thanthe playback frame rate (overcranking), you create a slow motion effect. Oppositely, a slower framerate will result in a fast motion effect (undercranking). Sound is not recorded in this mode.1 Open the [Slow & Fast Motion] screen.[FUNC.] > [MENU] > > [Slow & Fast Motion]2 Select the desired frame rate.• Available frame rates depend on the recording mode and frame rate. Refer to the following table.3 Touch [X].Available frame rates for slow & fast motionNOTES• During slow & fast motion recording mode, the following functions are not available.- Dual recording- Relay recording- Pre-recording- Video snapshot- Color bars- Face detection & tracking- Taking photos• During slow & fast motion recording mode, the running mode of the time code (A 73) is set to [RecRun] or [Regen.] and the time code will advance by the number of frames recorded.

When that amount is exceeded, the camcorder will automatically stoprecording. However, when you use slow & fast motion recording, the recording time will change.
