How to shoot Tying Shoelaces in slomo? at DVinfo.net

I have to include an shoelace tying sequence in a current project and thought I may as well show off some of the EX1's tricks and produce a slomo sequence - I know there are variables like frame rate, shutter speed etc to enhance slomo, but I haven't tried this yet, so howd'ya like to suggest camera settings to produce a "speccy" looking shoelace tying sequence? ( It's going to be from the child's POV)

If you want 60 fps then in "others" set HQ 720/25P and in camera/S&Q motion set "setting on" and frame rate 60.

After you get the footage you could use a program called Twixtor and remap the time...
checkout the footage "you don't know me" for an example..
