Selecting the Frame Rate
Select from standard 60i, 30p or 24p mode. Furthermore, images captured in 24p mode can be 2:3 pulldown-converted or 2:3:3:2 pulldown-converted.
60i Mode
Records in 60 fps interlace mode, same as TV signals.
30p Mode
Records in 30 fps progressive mode and outputs signals converted into 60 fps interlace.
24p Mode
Records in 24 fps progressive mode like movie film cameras, creating a cine-like picture.
24p 2:3 Mode
Signals are converted into 60 fps interlace using the 2:3 pulldown method. This 24p mode is suited for playback on a TV screen.
24p 2:3:3:2 Mode
Signals are converted into 60 fps interlace using the 2:3:3:2 pulldown method. This 24p mode is ideal for extracting true 24 frames per second in order to transfer to film.
