SETTINGS MENU
PROJECT
The Project menu includes settings that define the recorded file, including recording frame rate, exposure, and format.
FRAME RATE
RECORDING FRAME RATE
Select the recording frame rate (also referred to as the capture frame rate). The recording frame rate is the number of
frames per second (fps) that are recorded. The recording frame rate is different from the project time base, which is the
rate at which the footage will be played back.
The default recording frame rate is 23.98 fps. If you change the project time base, the recording frame rate
automatically changes its value to match the project time base.
The maximum frame rate for each format is determined by several factors, including project time base, REDCODE, and
Look Around.
PROJECT TIME BASE
Select the project time base. The project time base is the rate at which the footage will be played back. The project
time base displays in the lower left corner of the display.
The following project time bases are available:
23.98 fps (Default)
24.00 fps
25.00 fps
29.97 fps
30.00 fps
47.95 fps
48.00 fps
50.00 fps
59.94 fps
60.00 fps
VARISPEED
When a recording frame rate other than the current project time base is selected, the fps text turns yellow and the word
Varispeed replaces the Audio Meter in the lower right corner of the display.
Starting with firmware v6.4, the camera supports recording audio in Varispeed mode. For more information, go to
"Record Audio in Varispeed Mode" on page 170 .
