What's the quickest way to shoot slow motion footage in your Sony mirrorless camera? While the regular Movie recording mode in most of Sony's cameras will allow shooting in high frame rates in various resolutions, this still requires editing your footage in post to slow it down and achieve a slow motion look/effect.

Fortunately, Sony's Slow & Quick (also known as S&Q) mode allows you to capture slow motion footage with just a few settings changes in your camera, and without any additional work to be done in post. In this tutorial, I'll walk through the process of setting up S&Q mode to shoot slow motion with my Sony a7 IV, though this same process can also be used with other newer Sony cameras like the a7S III, FX3, a1 and the a7R V.

Furthermore, though the available resolutions and frame rates may change, and the menu names and locations might slightly vary, this will also work with Sony's cameras with S&Q mode that utilize Sony's older menu system, such the a7 III, a7C, a7R III and a7R IV, and Sony's APSC bodies like the a6100, a6400, a6600 and more.
