Panasonic AG-HVX200 Betriebsanweisung

When making movies to show on a screen, a frame 
rate of 24 fps (frames per second), which is the 
same as for films, is the norm (1x speed). If you 
use the settings below, the same kind of playback 
as with screenings can be obtained. By using the 
720P progressive mode and cine-like gamma, 
high-quality film-like images can be achieved.

When producing commercials and dramas to be 
shown on a TV screen, as in the case of HDTV/
SDTV and other broadcasts, a frame rate of 30 
fps (frames per second) is the norm (1x speed). 
If you use the settings below, the same kind of 
playback as when the programs are broadcast can 
be obtained. Commercials and music clips will be 
recorded with a high film-like picture quality while 
the number of frames is also ideally suited to TV 
broadcasts.

This way of shooting provides quick motion effects 
used to present such scenes as the movement of 
clouds, someone standing among crowd of people, 
and moves made by martial artists. If, for instance, 
you have shot scenes using the 24P recording 
format for specifying the playback frames, you can 
double the speed of the quick motion effects by 
setting the VFR recording frame rate to 12 fps.

•  In the case of the 720P/24P and 720P/30P 

formats, the quick motion effect can be obtained 
by using a nonlinear editing system to process 
what has been recorded.

This way of shooting provides slow motion effects 
used to show car chases as well as action scenes, 
climax scenes and other dramatic presentations. 
If, for instance, you have shot scenes using the 
30P recording format for specifying the playback 
frames, you can obtain slow motion effects with the 
speed halved by setting the recording frame rate to 
60 fps. Images in the 720P progressive format will 
create smoothly flowing slow motion sequences 
with a high picture quality.

•  In the case of the 720P/24P and 720P/30P 

formats, the slow motion effect can be obtained 
by using a nonlinear editing system to process 
what has been recorded.
