Editing Video :Super Slow Mo

[JameyPrice]

I recently bought a D300s and while I am VERY familiar with shooting stills, I am less comfortable with video.

The video on the Nikon website is extremely impressive. Particularly the part where the helicopter takes off. I know the D300s shoots 24fps, but to capture a helicopter's blades like that, that is NOT 24fps. So how was this movie edited to make it look that smooth and crisp? Any ideas? Here's the link. The video is the "Robert Bösch" (8th from the left).

iMovie is about my limitation right now, and I know it is VERY basic at best. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Final Cut, iMovie isn't going to do it for you.

There are two versions correct? Final Cut, and Final Cut Pro. Differences in them?

You'll also need a faster fps than that, not just editing. most slow-mo video cameras are in the 120fps to 1200fps range

This is the link to the Nikon website I forgot to post. The Robert Bosch video looks pretty sweet/slo mo to me, yet it was shot using the D300s.

Final Cut Pro is deeper, has more filtering/color correcting options, can handle/output more file types ... costs $800 more.
