3 Setting the Movie Recording Quality
Frame rate (fps: frame per second)
8 59.94fps/6 29.97fps
For areas where the TV system is NTSC (North America, Japan,
South Korea, Mexico, etc.).
7 50.00 fps/5 25.00 fps
For areas where the TV system is PAL (Europe, Russia, China,
Australia, etc.).
4 23.98 fps
Selectable when [53: Video system] is set to [For NTSC].
Mainly for motion pictures.
Compression method
X IPB (Standard)
Compresses multiple frames at a time efficiently for recording.
IPB (Light)
Since the movie is recorded at a bit rate lower than with IPB
(Standard), the file size will be smaller than with IPB (Standard)
and the playback compatibility will be higher. This will make the
possible shooting time longer than with IPB (Standard) (with a
card having the same capacity).
Movie recording format
C MP4
The movie will be recorded in the MP4 format (file extension
“.MP4”). This file format provides higher compatibility for playback
than with MOV.
