Movie Options
You can choose the type of movie to shoot.
The camera can record normal speed movies and HS (high speed) movies (
A120),
which can be played back in slow motion or fast motion.
The higher the resolution and bitrate, the higher the picture quality; but the file size
also becomes larger.
