This enables/disables Variable Frame Rate (VFR) Mode.
In Variable Frame Rate Mode, you can record quick or slow motion picture by changing the frame
rate before recording.
Slow motion (overcrank recording)
Used in scenes such as climaxes, a slow motion effect creates a dramatic impression. Set a frame
rate that provides more frames than the frame rate in [REC FORMAT] does.
Example: If you set [FHD 1080/23.98p 50M] to 48fps and record a motion picture, a slow motion
effect of 1/2 can be gained.
Quick motion (undercrank recording)
A fast motion effect is used in scenes showing the flow of clouds, people standing in the middle of
crowds, etc. Set a frame rate that provides less frames than the frame rate in [REC FORMAT] does.
Example: If you set [FHD 1080/23.98p 50M] to 12 fps and record a motion picture, a quick motion
effect of 2
k can be gained.
