High Speed Shutter Camcorders

slow-motion digital Camcorder?

im looking to do decent slow motion (not production quality) just for fun. im looking at some digital camorders. im not sure how many frames a second a digital camcorder puts out on average, but it wont be the camcorder itself doing the slow motion. i have a program (Vages Movie Studio 8) it has a slow motion option that i will use to edit the video and slow it down. Should i just get any 25-30 FPS camcorder or go for a higher framrate camcorder. do some camcorders come with a change framrate speed option? or shutter speed option?

The only consumer camcorders that have any sort of increased frame capture rate (of which I am currently aware) are several select camcorders from Sony. You would be looking for the “Smooth Slow Record” feature.

Basically, it can burst for a few seconds at high speed. When you import and playback, it is in slow motion. The video quality isn’t that great – but I think it is better than using normal 30fps and slowing it down in post-production… The length of the burst depends on the camera (and how much buffer memory it has).

ALL digital camcorders will record at 30fps (actually, 29.97, but you can look that up). Some higher end (Canon HV20, HV30 and up; Panasonic DVX100B) will do 24 fps for a “cinema” look. Only these select Sonys will go faster fps in this burst mode. Then com the expensive high-speed industrial cams that are REALLY expensive – and it does not seem like you want to go there…
