MAIN MENU
Available options under the MAIN MENU are FRAMERATE (FPS), EXPOSURE (ISO), WHITE BALANCE,
RESOLUTION, and QUALITY (REDcode).
FPS (VARISPEED)
Used to select an image capture frame rate that differs from the Project’s TIME BASE frame rate.
Range is 1 – 120 fps
Default is 24 fps (or the selected Project TIME BASE frame rate if not 23.98 or 24.00 fps).
When a frame rate other than the current TIME BASE has been selected, the FPS text will turn Yellow
and VARISPEED will be shown where the Audio Meter is normally displayed at the lower right of the
display.
If you press record with a frame rate set too high for the selected record quality, you will be prompted to
allow the camera to change the REDCODE setting to the maximum quality that enables that frame rate.
BASIC SETTINGS
Provides quick selection of the most common Varispeed frame rates.
