120 FPS

Maybe I don't have something set correctly, but when shooting 1080 120fps, footage is not slo-mo when played back.

Tom, the 120FPS speed allows you use post production editing software to slow down your footage to a "slow-motion" effect while still keeping a high definition video.

Ah, so it's not a true variable frame rate? In post I see no difference between 120fps and 30fps when slowing down. Thx

If you're using something like Adobe Premiere Pro, you need to tell the footage what frame rate you want it played back at. It works really well. You can either change the clip's properties or just use time remapping

Using AVID MC and Adobe After effects. Guessing After Effects works like Premiere. With other cameras (Panny GH4) when I shoot in 96fps, the image plays back in slo mo (in a 24fps project) without any effects needed
