Sets the High Frame Rate shooting settings.
Menu item details
Record Setting:
Selects the frame rate of the movie from [60p 50M]/[50p 50M], [30p 50M]/[25p 50M], and [24p 50M]*.
Frame Rate:
Selects the shooting frame rate from [240fps]/[250fps], [480fps]/[500fps], and [960fps]/[1000fps].
This setting determines the minimum shutter speed per frame.
Priority Setting:
Select [Quality Priority] or [Shoot Time Priority]. If you select [Shoot Time Priority], the recordable duration is longer than
in [Quality Priority] mode.
REC Timing:
Selects whether to record a set amount of time after pressing the SHUTTER/MOVIE button ([Start Trigger]), or to record
for a set amount of time until you press the SHUTTER/MOVIE button ([End Trigger]).
Frame rate
In super-slow-motion movie shooting, the camera shoots at a faster shutter speed than the number of shooting frames
per second. For example, when [
Frame Rate] is set to [960fps], the shutter speed per frame will be faster than
approx. 1/1000 second in order to shoot 960 frames per second. To maintain this shutter speed, sufficient ambient light is
necessary during shooting. If the ambient light is insufficient, the ISO sensitivity will become higher, resulting in more
noise.
Timing of recording
Depending on the [
REC Timing] setting, the relationship between when you press the SHUTTER/MOVIE button and
the recorded section of the movie is as shown below.
: The point when the SHUTTER/MOVIE button is pressed
: Recorded section
: Recording to memory card in progress (You cannot start the next session of shooting while the camera is
recording to the memory card.)
: Buffering in progress
[Start Trigger]
Movie capturing (shooting) starts when the SHUTTER/MOVIE button is pressed. 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.
