    ZV-E10M2: Adding variety to movies with slow/quick motion and time lapses

    Add variety to movies with slow motion, quick motion, and time lapses. Note that sound is not recorded in these modes.

    S&Q Motion

    You can record a moment that cannot be captured by the naked eye (slow-motion recording) or record a long-term phenomenon into a compressed movie (quick-motion recording). For example, you can record an intense sports scene, the moment when a bird starts to fly, a blooming flower, or a changing view of clouds or a starry sky.

    Operation method

    Set the Still/Movie/S&Q switch to S&Q, select S&Q Motion, and then start recording.

    The playback speed depends on the value set in Frame Rate Settings. For slow-motion playback, set a frame rate value higher than the recording frame rate, and for quick-motion playback, set a frame rate value lower than the recording frame rate.

    Time lapses

    Time-lapse recording can show gradual changes (such as the changing colors of the sky or the movement of stars or clouds) much faster than they actually happen.
    With the ZV-E10M2, time-lapse movies can be created in two ways.

    Recording video as a time-lapse movie

    Time-lapse movies can be recorded by the camera itself.
    You can record movies by condensing changes over a period of up to several dozen minutes. Unlike quick-motion movie recording, you can set a shooting interval longer than 1 second. This enables you to record movies with a larger time compression ratio.

    Operation method

    Set the Still/Movie/S&Q switch to S&Q, select Time-lapse, and then start recording.
