Special Recording Modes

Special Recording Modes

The camcorder features 4 special recording modes for recording MXF clips. Only pre-recording is available for recording MP4 clips.

118Interval recording: The camcorder will automatically record a pre-defined number of frames at a pre-defined interval. This mode is suitable for recording subjects with little movement, such as natural surroundings or plants.

Frame recording: The camcorder will record a pre-defined number of frames every time you press the START/ STOP button. This mode is suitable for recording stop motion animation.

Slow & fast motion recording: This mode allows you to change the shooting frame rate to achieve a slow motion or fast motion effect during playback.

Pre-recording: The camcorder will start recording approximately 3 seconds before you press the START/STOP button. This is especially useful when it is difficult to predict when to start recording.

Interval Recording Mode
