# Slowing down footage with easing (like iPhone 5s)

(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-06-02)

I have a 120 fps footage captured with a GoPro that I'd like to slow down with easing, like the slow motion playback functionality on iPhone 5s.

Is that possible without any extra plugins in Final Cut Pro X? I know how to slow down a footage, but I'd really like the effect from normal speed to slow motion.
