I have the same camera, but last I checked, mine only did 30fps, so how did you do this?

@shelbyfanss

Use the TV setting. The shutter speed can be set from 1/2 to 1/2000. See pages 63 & 64 of the manual.

What was the shutter speed?

[nps1000]

I think it was 1/1000.

[nps1000]

No. The time of the film was increased. Is there a better term?

How did you set the camera to do this? Can you also do stop action for claymation, etc?

Look they have really skinny long tongues! Good camera as long as you have good knowledge over the navigation of the menu and controls. :)
