JVC GY-HM650U Set Rec Mode to Variable Frame, Select a recording frame rate from Frame & Bit Rate

Variable Frame Rec

Shooting in this mode allows you to obtain smooth slow motion or quick motion videos.

Using different frame rate settings for recording and playback, videos captured at normal speed can be played back more smoothly than those in low or high speed playback.

To enable Variable Frame Rec, the following two settings are required at the same time.

[Record Format]-[Resolution]/

[3Resolution] is set to “1920x1080” or “1280x720”.

[Record Format]-[Frame & Bit Rate]/ [3Frame & Bit Rate] is set to “30p(HQ)”, “24p(HQ)”, or “25p(HQ)”.
