Hey Folks,

In this short Tutorial i will show you how to simply and fast preview your 720p 50 or 60 fps shots in slow motion from your Canon 7D or other file based cameras they capture video on this framerates without any transcoding or playback in your editing software. There is a simple method within the VLC-Player. You can download the VLC player for free from videolan.org – simply download and install the player. I think it´s one of the best player for video playback out there and it´s for FREE.

Start the VLC player and open your 720p footage clip.

Then go to playback in the top menue and click on “slower (fine)” in the dropdown menue.

You will see in the right corner of your video window the info of how times playback the video slower.

Make these steps as long to 0.50x (means half speed playback). That´s it. It´s an realy cool little feature that i use often to preview my high framerate footage in slow motion.
