    Multiple recording modes, resolutions and frame rates make the XA40 professional camcorder creatively flexible and adaptable to virtually any news-gathering environment.

  • Slow and fast motion recording
    Slow and Fast Motion Modes allow the XA40 professional camcorder to record a different frame rate than the playback frame rate for a fast or slow motion effect during playback. Since the camera is recording real frames and modifying the playback rate, there is virtually no quality loss and maximum image quality is maintained. Additionally, interval recording allows the user to record frames at specified intervals, providing time-lapse recording of up to 1200x and slow motion down to 0.4x of the original speed.
