Solution
When you set [Frame Rate] to a progressive frame rate, the camcorder can record with a frame rate (shooting frame rate) that is different from the playback frame rate. Recording a clip at a higher frame rate than the [Frame Rate] setting will result in a slow motion effect during playback. Conversely, a lower frame rate will result in a fast motion effect. Sound is not recorded in this mode.
Hold down the button on the <POWER> switch and move it to <CAMERA>.
1. Press the <MENU> button to open the menu.
2. Open the [Frame Rate] submenu.
2-1. Select [Other Functions] -> [Slow & Fast Motion] -> [S&F Frame Rate] in that order.
2-2. Select the desired shooting frame rate and then press <SET> button.

REFERENCE
- The time code advances while video is recorded. If the running mode of the time code is set to [Free Run] or the time code is input from an external source (
only), the running mode will switch to [Rec Run] during special recording mode. When special recording mode is deactivated, the running mode will return to its previous setting. -
During special recording mode, the time code signal will not be output from the GENLOCK/TC terminal or HD/SD SDI terminal.
NOTE
- You can use only one special recording mode at a time. In addition, slow & fast motion mode cannot be used with double slot recording.
- While recording, you cannot change the shooting frame rate.
- For lower shooting frame rates, it may take approximately 1 second to stop recording.
- Slow & fast motion mode will be deactivated if the special recording mode is changed or turned off. It will be deactivated also if you change the video configuration.
- When the bit rate is set to 50 Mbps during slow motion recording, relay recording is not available.
