Tech Specs: Video

FRAMES PER SECOND (FPS)

Frames per second refers to the number of frames captured in each
second of video. Higher fps values (60, 120, or 240) are better at
capturing fast-action shots. You can also use high fps footage for
slo-mo playback.

Resolution + FPS

Higher video resolutions capture more detail and clarity, but they're
generally available at lower fps values.
Lower video resolutions capture less detail and clarity, but they can
be shot at higher fps values.
When choosing a resolution on the RES | FPS screen, all of the available
frame rates for the resolution you selected are shown in white. Unavailable
frame rates are in gray.
