Slow-Motion Videos

To record slow-motion videos, select [1920×1080; 30p ×4 (slow-motion)], [1920×1080; 25p ×4 (slow-motion)], or [1920×1080; 24p ×5 (slow-motion)] for [Frame size/frame rate] in the video recording menu.

  • In the case of [1920×1080; 30p ×4 (slow-motion)], images read out at a frame rate of 120p are recorded as a 30p video. Video recorded for approximately 10 seconds will play for approximately 40 seconds. Slow-motion videos can be used to view events of brief duration, such as a bat striking a ball, in slow motion.

  • Sound is not recorded.
  • The image area is fixed at [FX].
  • Slow-motion videos shot when a DX lens is mounted will be recorded at the following frame sizes and rates:
    • [1920×1080; 30p ×4 (slow-motion)] V [1920×1080; 60p]
    • [1920×1080; 25p ×4 (slow-motion)] V [1920×1080; 50p]
    • [1920×1080; 24p ×5 (slow-motion)] V [1920×1080; 60p]
  • Custom Setting g9 [Extended shutter speeds (S/M)] is disabled.
  • The frame rates when images are read out and when videos are recorded and played back are as follows.

    [1920×1080; 25p ×4 (slow-motion)] 100p 25p
    [1920×1080; 24p ×5 (slow-motion)] 120p 24p

    The frame rates for 120p, 100p, 30p, 25p, and 24p are respectively 119.88 fps, 100 fps, 29.97 fps, 25 fps, and 23.976 fps.

Cautions: Recording Slow-Motion Videos

  • Features that cannot be used during slow-motion video recording include:
    • flicker reduction,
    • electronic VR, and
    • time code output.
  • When recording via HDMI output to an external recorder, video will be recorded at original speed, not in slow motion.
