It doesn't (appear) to have frame-by-frame playback mode but it does support slo-mo which is more than enough for me (roughly 1/5 real time playback). It can also record approx. 3 secs in super slow motion (probably good to analyse release) but I've not used this yet.

A very good investment (and so much easier to use than the sony handcam I had previously which was great but you had to constantly wind/rewind the tape to find what you were looking for). With this, you just select the thumbnail for the clip you want and play - excellent.

I haven't bothered yet to transfer to DVD (but I'm going to need to soon as we're using it in our coaching group and others are going to want to take their clips home).

Thanks for info Simon. Can you play the Slo-MO in reverse then forward to repeat a particular section with ease
