Relation Between the Number of Frames Shot and the Number of
Playback Frames (Outline of Select FPS)
To obtain the desired slow or quick motion effects using the Select FPS function, it is necessary to set the
appropriate number of frames to shoot.
If you shoot with the number of frames shot set to 50 FPS, the camera module generates 50 frames (50
FPS) while the data is transferred from the camera module to the VTR module at 60P. As a result,
transferred data is padded with frames (ineffective frames) in which no signal is recorded. This unit
extracts and stores only effective frames and records them onto tape. When the tape is played back at 24P,
a slow motion effect of 0.48 times normal playback speed is obtained.
The following figure illustrates the operation described above.

For 4:2:2 formats: 1 to 60 FPS
For 4:4:4 formats: 1 to 60 FPS
