Selecting the Frame Rate
You can select from the following frame rates depending on the recording mode:
60i, 30F, 24F (2:3 pulldown-converted)
60i, 30F, 24F (2:3 pulldown-converted or 2:3:3:2 pulldown-converted)
60i Mode
Records in 60 fps interlaced mode, the same as TV signals.
30F Mode
Records in 30 fps progressive mode and outputs
signals converted into 60 fps interlaced.
24F Mode
Records in 24 fps progressive mode. During
playback the signals are down-converted to 60 fps
interlaced using the 2:3 pulldown method. While
recording, if the HDV/DV terminal is set to HDV output,
the output signal will be in 24 fps progressive. The signal
output from the HD/SD SDI terminal and the
COMPONENT OUT (D-) terminal will be down-converted
to 60 fps using the 2:3 pulldown method.
Records in 24 fps progressive mode like movie cameras, creating a true cinematic feel to the picture.
24F (2:3) Mode
Signals are down-converted to 60 fps interlaced using
the 2:3 pulldown method. This 24F mode is suited for
playback on a TV screen.
24F (2:3:3:2) Mode
Signals are down-converted to 60 fps interlaced using
the 2:3:3:2 pulldown method. This 24F mode is ideal
for extracting true 24 frames per second in order to
transfer to film.
