Shooting in progressive mode
Selecting 1080/25P (or 1080/30P and 1080/24P 
when SYSTEM FREQ is set to 59.9 Hz) in the 
REC FORMAT option (Page 91) of the setting 
menu RECORDING SETUP screen enables 
shooting in progressive mode.
25P mode (when SYSTEM FREQ is set to 50 Hz):
   Shoot 25 frames a second in the progressive 
mode.
   For output and recording, the 25-frame-per-
second signal is converted to 50-field-per-

Note the following when shooting in 
progressive mode.
You cannot have a gain of 18 dB.
Set the shutter speed to 1/50 (OFF) for best 
results.
There may be a slight delay to the start 
of recording when you use the 24P mode 
because 4 frames are recorded at a time.
(Only when SYSTEM FREQ is set to 59.9 Hz)
