What are the slo mo speed options for shooting on the HVX-200 with a P2 card? I know you can shoot 48 frames and play at 24 for 50% slo mo but what other percent slo mo's can you shoot for? Is it unlimited when overcranking? Or what rates will the HVX-200 allow you to overcrank? I'm wondering if this idea I've got for shooting a music video will work out or not: Not sure what exact percentage I'll need the slo mo to be but maybe 70% or so. It needs to match up with the sped up CD that will be playing on the set for lip syncing and like I said I'm not sure exactly what slo mo I will need to be shooting for but my main question stands, what slo mo options do I have? Thanks!

The highest possible framerate (NTSC) is 60fps. The slowest possible I suppose infinitely long using the interval record mode. You can "film" down to 2fps with the "frame rate hack" documented in this forum.
Okay so I'm still a little confused, can I shoot say at 50fps? Or 40fps? Or 41fps? Is there frame rates between 24 and 60 that I can't shoot? Would I be crazy to imagine that the frame rate would have to be divisible by 24 or 30? My head hurts.:huh:
On my DVX-100B I've shot 30p and played at 80% on a 24p timeline in FCP (utilizing a Nattress frame mapping plug-in) so I guess 30's not divisible by 24 so that would make sense that I could shoot at any frame rate between 24 & 60 on the HVX assuming the option is there...I'm terrible at this math stuff.
Thanks for the link, more than enough info on those figures.
