Slow-Motion Movies - Nikon D780 Reference Manual

Slow-Motion Movies

To record silent slow-motion movies, select [1920×1080; 30p
×4 (slow-motion)], [1920×1080; 25p ×4 (slow-motion)], or
[1920×1080; 24p ×5 (slow-motion)] for [Frame size/frame
rate] in the movie shooting menu. Movies recorded at 4 or 5
times the rated speed are played back at the rated speed for a
slow-motion effect. Movies shot at [1920 × 1080; 30p ×4 (slow-
motion)], for example, are recorded at a frame rate of roughly
120 fps and play back at around 30 fps, meaning that 10
seconds recording produces about 40 seconds of footage.
