Today, we discuss the various capabilities of the the Zenmuse X7. Keenan, our caller wishes to know if it is possible to bump up the frame rate on the X7. Is 60 fps the maximum frame rate possible? Can you increase the fps to a 96 or 120?
The Zenmuse X7 is an expensive camera known for producing phenomenal results. Unfortunately the Zenmuse X7 does not offer the option of lowering resolution to 1080. However Paul suggests a workaround via which you can still produce slow motion footage using Final Cut Pro. Tune in as Paul gives you detailed, step-by-step instructions for producing high quality slow-mo footage. Also, watch out for Vic and Paul’s forthcoming review where they discuss all aspects of the Zenmuse X7 at great length.
