  hvx200 variable frame rates

  Posted by James Carroccio on March 6, 2010 at 9:21 pm

  Hey guys,

  Trying to overcrank/Undercrank while using the hvx200.

  set the frame rate to 720p/60

  shot.

  Ingested content to fcp.

  Playback is normal (not slow mo)

  I pretty sure there is another internal application that im not setting.

  Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

  thx

  Did you read the manual? You want to shoot 720p/24pN and then pick a record frame rate- 0-60fps. Shooting 720p/60 is not variable framerate it’s 720p/60. If you want it to look slow mo now, use the Speed control in FCP and slow it down by a percentage. Make sure to click blend frames off.

  Camera needs to be in Film Mode too.

  You can convert 720p60 to 30fps or 24fps later. You can use the DVCPRO HD Frame Rate Converter (in the TOOLS menu), or modify the clip…called CONFORM…using Cinema Tools, to whatever speed you want. Duplicate the clip first if you want one at normal speed, because CONFORM modifies the clip permanently.
