Selecting Frame Rate - Photron FASTCAM ultima APX-i2 Hardware Manual

4.2. Selecting Frame Rate

The APX-i2 can set a frame rate of from 60 frames per second (FPS) upward
depending on the particular need of a recording. With the APX-i2, frame rates from 60
FPS to 2,000 FPS allow for recording of image using the full resolution of 1024 x 1024
pixels of the imaging sensor. For recording at frame rates higher than 2,000 FPS,
high-speed recording is attained by limiting the read-out area (resolution) of the sensor.
The following discusses how to select a frame rate (FPS):
1. Make sure the camera is in the LIVE mode.
2. Press the FRAME RATE up or down button on the keypad. The frame rate
increases as the up button is pressed and decreases as the down button is
pressed.
3. Make sure the frame rate indication in the lower left corner of the video image
changes as either button is pressed.
Note: At a frame rate higher than 2,000 FPS, the maximum resolution of those
allowable under the currently selected frame rate is automatically selected. Please see
the Frame Rate / Resolution reference table in section 7.1.6.
Note: The lowest frame rate for the PAL mode is 50 fps.
