No slow motion mode?

Why a flagship like Xz does not have a slow motion mode? 

Can't Sony even provide a 120fps mode for XZ ?

Hi @100sailo,

As @Viridis mentioned the slow motion mode is called "Timeshift Burst Video". You can access it by opening the Camera app then swipe right to left across the screen until you reach "Camera apps". Timeshift Burst Video is one the options available here. Slightly_smiling_Face

Got it thanks but one suggestion to Sony.. they really need to tune up there camera app 

If a loyal Sony fan like me who has owned about 5 Sony phones till now don't know about it.. I'm sure many miss this feature as well ... Why can't Sony just put all the features in one place and make it easy for us ...

Hope you pass this feedback to Sony

I'm sure they will,

It was heavily mentioned with z2 and z3 as a key camera feature, as they added newer features though, it has slid a little, though you'll be happy to hear that it's now included as part of motion eye options on devices after xz, no good for you unfortunately, but shows Sony wanted to include the current timeshift mode in with the new, kind of a full set.

Hope they include in the Oreo update for us

It's really been a long time Sony has not revamped their skin as well. .  i wish next year we see something better.. I'm bored of Xperia launcher.. Every phone it is the same

At first, one could improve the help message. If you touch this slow motion button, you only get the message that you can go to 960, not that you have a choice.

Choosing only between 960 and 120 limit things. Since it is only a software setting it could also be variable.

I'm using this phone professionally. If I've a machine problem I would like to film in slow motion to understand. However the amount of slow motion depends on machine speed.
