Hi, I have a couple of questions. The first is how do I capture slow motion footage, is the same that if I capture normal footage? I´m asking this because in the settings of Final Cut to capture footage it only has the option of using normal fps, like 24 fps, 60 fps, etc.
The other one is if I can use the Final Cut application for changing the duration of a video clip without loosing quality or I need any of the programs you mentioned. I have Motion, can I do it with this program? Cheers.
@ospiis In this camera you will need to enter the special slow-motion mode (please see my other video on howto). What happends then is that the camera enter a special internal mode which you cannot access outside the camera, to capture what it sees @ 100 fps (120 in US models) and when you initiate the recording in the camera it transfer this buffer as a 25 fps (60 in US) stream to tape so that the actual video will be 25 fps. This is then transfered as any other video.
@ospiis To retime such a sequence you can of course use Final Cut, Premier etc., but these slow-motion technique uses poor techniques such as frame blending etc. To get a smooth slow motion you will need special software that uses motion vectors/pixel tracking and is therefor able to simulate that missing frame much more realistically then with other techniques. Try f.ex. Twixtor or even VirtualDub (which is free).
@halfhourof8MuSt Yes, it stores its digital signals on tape, but you can also attach a digital recorder to this camera (flash memory) as an option. To transfer video you simply attach it via the FireWire port connected with a cable between camera and computer and you can transfer the digital signal from tape to your computer with software like Final Cut and similar for further editing.
@shnizzlebizzle4rizzl IMO it depends. If you work in a busy environment where things need to happen fast I think a flash recorder will pay off as the transfer to disc is much faster than transfer from tape (and since one can records to tape simultaionously you can directly archive the tape for backup). Otherwise perhaps not, it probably becomes more a nice-to-have device.

@Optisoft@Optisoft Hola Mi pregunta es q como puedo gragar en camara lenta con SONY FX 1000 o hay que tener un software , si no es con un software me puese esplicar como lo hago en la cámara.
@josegurabo I have updated the description text with two explinations on how to do this (look for UPDATE in the main text) - or rather two ways to enable slow motion in the camera.
To further apply slow-motion to the sequence you record with FX1000 if 4x slow/motion is not enough, is to use a pixel tracking slow motion software such as Twixtor, or of course a generic slow motion software (Premier, After Effects, Combustion etc.) but without the same good smooth result.
Thanks for the video, I didn't know about pixel tracking, now I can try to make slow-motion video even slower without losing the quality... and thanks for the song, I like it! :)
@ossisTONE AutoDesk seem to have no plans releasing the ReTimer as a standalone software anymore after they purchased the RealViz company. But there is Twixtor from ReVision effects that probably do a good job too. :-)
Hi, the framerates are static in the fx1000 so I had to use re-timer software in post for the 300fps (using RealViz ReTimer which uses pixel-tracking for a more accurate slow-motion perseption).
But with a 4x retimed footage as you get with the fx-1000 it's much easier to get a good result doing retiming. I use the PAL-system so my default is 25 fps (or 100 fps when in slow-motion, ie. 4x).
I wan`t that camera!!!! x3

so this camera works on tape............
(great video though)
any idea how can i sync the videos into my computer ?
p.s i'm using a MACBOOK .
thank you.

@Optisoft are the compact flash recorders really that benefitial, cuz their quite expensive. Are they worth it?
