BSWF Episode 1 Sony FX-7 Slow Mo Explosions Tests

Fielding Pagel, Alex Rooney and Chris Fiftal test out the slow-motion recording feature on the Sony FX-7 camcorder. We test it out by recording at 240 fps (frames per second) and then slowing it down even more in post-production. This is some great sample footage for the Sony FX7. We experiment by shooting Ice blocks, soda cans, and tree trunks. Episode 1, more to come soon with other features of the Sony FX-7. Filmed and Edited by Chris Fiftal. Produced by BHC Video Productions.

too bad the FX7 doesn't record the 240fps in HD. That was a big fault I had with it. When I go shoot car and horse events, I record in HD obviously, and when I want to mix a slow mo shot into the edit, it shoots it in less than half the quality.

[eraserboyeraserboy]

this is very true - it doesnt look bad on here but on a TV the slow-mo looks pretty awful on this camera.

I thought the FX7could only do something like 60i FPS?? How on earth did you manage to get 240fps, would love to know.

[eraserboyeraserboy]

It has a slow motion feature where it records 6 seconds of real-time at 240fps. which ends up being 20 seconds of slow-mo. pretty cool feature.

Nice exercise... wonder what a bag of chips would look like being opened with an ordinance round at 480 fps?

[eraserboyeraserboy]

sounds like a great episode 2. you supply the chips, and we'll run the experiment. could be a great slow-mo

[fatkid1098]

what was the song you guys were listening to in the beginning? haha

[Reensemme]

wow the exploding ice blok with 240fps is brilliant!
