Catching What the Eye Usually Misses
A splash of water or a sudden, quick movement usually passes by in an instant. Slow-motion mode captures those moments in a way that reveals detail you would never notice in real time.
Good Lighting Makes a Real Difference
Because it records far more frames per second than standard video, slow motion needs more light to keep each frame sharp -- in dim settings, footage often comes out noticeably grainier.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do slow-motion videos take up more storage space?
Yes -- because they capture far more frames per second than standard video, slow-motion clips take up noticeably more storage space for the same length of footage.
Does slow motion work well in low light?
It works best in well-lit conditions. Because slow motion needs a higher frame rate, footage shot in dim environments often comes out grainier than normal video.
