720p50 DVCPRO HD

The 720p50 DVCPRO HD format supports 50 and 25 fps recording. When you record at 25 fps, the camera CCD captures images at the lower rate but the recording rate stays fixed at 50 fps.

720pN DVCPRO HD Native Frame Rate Recording

Camcorders such as the Panasonic AG-HVX200 allow you to record 720p footage onto P2 cards without duplicating frames. Because the footage is recorded at the intended frame rate, this method is called native frame rate recording and is often indicated by the letter N. For example, 720p60 camcorders can record 720pN30 and 720pN24 formats. 720p50 camcorders can record the 720pN25 format. For details about how to best ingest these formats, see “Panasonic AG-HVX200 Camcorder Compatibility” on page 105.

720p DVCPRO HD Variable Frame Rate Recording

Some 720p DVCPRO HD camcorders allow you to create slow- and fast-motion effects by recording at variable frame rates.

å720p60 camcorders can record frame rates between 4 and 60 fps.

å720p50 camcorders can record frame rates between 4 and 50 fps.

For example, you can create slow motion with the Panasonic Varicam camcorder by setting an intended playback frame rate of 24 fps and then recording at 60 fps. When 60 fps footage is played at 24 fps, slow-motion effects are created. For more information, see “Using the DVCPRO HD Frame Rate Converter” on page 51.

Setting System Frequency on a Panasonic Varicam Camcorder

The Panasonic Varicam camcorder can record at the standard NTSC-compatible rate of 59.94 fps or at exactly 60 fps. Final Cut Pro only supports DVCPRO HD video transfer via FireWire at 59.94 fps (or one of its variants, such as 29.97 or 23.98 fps). If you want to capture DVCPRO HD footage via FireWire, make sure you record your footage with the system frequency of your camcorder set to 59.94, not 60. For more information, see the documentation included with the Panasonic Varicam camcorder.

The Apple iPhone 6, released in September 2014, marked a significant evolution in Apple's smartphone lineup. This model introduced a larger screen and a sleeker design, setting the stage for future devices in the iPhone series.

One of the most notable features of the iPhone 6 was its display. With a 4.7-inch Retina HD screen, the iPhone 6 offered a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels, delivering vibrant colors and sharp images. This screen size was a departure from previous models, appealing to users who favored larger displays for better viewing experiences, whether for gaming, watching videos, or browsing the web.

The design of the iPhone 6 was another highlight. It featured a slim, curved aluminum body that not only made it more aesthetically pleasing but also improved its ergonomics. Weighing just 129 grams, the phone was light yet robust. The placement of volume buttons, the power button, and the headphone jack was thoughtfully designed to enhance usability.

Under the hood, the iPhone 6 was powered by the A8 chip, a 64-bit dual-core processor that offered impressive performance and energy efficiency. Coupled with the M8 motion coprocessor, the device could effectively handle demanding apps and services while optimizing battery life, providing users with a smooth experience throughout the day.

The camera capabilities of the iPhone 6 were also advanced for its time. It featured an 8-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and a f/2.2 aperture, allowing for clearer low-light photography. The front-facing camera was improved as well, offering a 1.2-megapixel resolution and support for 720p HD video, making it great for selfies and video calls.

Connectivity options included LTE support, enabling faster download speeds, and Wi-Fi calling, which allowed users to make calls over Wi-Fi networks, enhancing communication in areas with poor cellular coverage. The iPhone 6 also introduced the Apple Pay feature, allowing users to make secure transactions using their devices.

In terms of software, the iPhone 6 originally came with iOS 8, which boasted new features such as HealthKit and HomeKit, further integrating technology into daily life. Regular software updates ensured that users could enjoy the latest features and security enhancements well into the device's lifecycle.

Overall, the iPhone 6 distinguished itself with a combination of innovative design, powerful performance, and a user-friendly experience, solidifying Apple's position in the smartphone market and paving the way for future iterations in the iPhone lineup.
