Slow-Motion recording at High Frame Rate

(HFR)
Slow-motion recording at High Frame Rate
(HFR) has been added to Slow & Quick
Motion recording when the recording
format is XAVC HD.
Unlike Super Slow Motion recording, video
can be recorded up until the remaining
capacity of the media runs out, in the same
way as for normal recording. Consequently,
slow-motion recording is now possible
without missing shooting opportunities.
