Tips for recording slow-motion videos

Shoot with plenty of light

Slow-motion videos will look darker and gloomier than usual because it is shot at higher frames rates. In order to maintain normal brightness, please use extra sources of light to compensate when recording.

Choose an appropriate speed

Higher frames rates will reduce the resolution of the picture, so please adjust the slow motion speed according to different scenarios to get better effects.

For example, choose 4X or 8X for shooting the slow motion of diving and kicking a football; select 32X super slow motion for birds flying.

Shot at 32X SPEED

Some models also support shooting at the speed of up to 256X, which can be used to capture water splashing and bubble popping.
