A Quick Guide on Capturing Slow Motion Videos on Your iPhone
The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models have quickly become hot-selling devices since they were launched in September 2023. One standout feature is the improved camera experience, which has captured the attention of both photography and film enthusiasts.
While features like the ability to shoot in ProRes LOG are important, the slow motion video feature has improved significantly over the years. It allows users to add drama and intrigue to scenes. Importantly, this feature is not exclusive to the iPhone 15 series; it’s available for iPhones as old as the iPhone 5S.
However, recording a slow-motion video on your iPhone is simple and hardly requires any effort.
Follow these steps to shoot in Slow-mo on your compatible iPhone:
- Launch the Camera app.
- Swipe right through the camera mode settings until you find Slo-Mo.
- Set the desired frame rate in Slo-Mo mode.
- Point your camera at the object or scene you want to capture in slow motion.
- Tap the red record button to start recording.
- When you’ve saved the footage you want, tap the stop button to stop.
- You can check the video you’ve saved by going to the Photos app.
In addition, you can even customize the flexibility when slow motion starts and stops at specific times. To do this, follow these steps:
- Tap the video thumbnail, then tap Edit.
- Use the bars below the frame preview to limit the portion you want to play in slow motion.
