Is 120 fps good video?
If by 120fps you mean – shot and played back at 120fps, I don’t think there is a real advantage. Sure, the motion will seem unnaturally perfect and smooth, but that’s opposite of what we expect from a movie: to be transported to some alternate reality, a world where our worries and real problems cease to exist.
How much should you slow down 120 fps?
The actual amount of slow motion footage that you need will dictate how long you should film for at 120 fps in order to achieve the desired 24 fps outcome. Consider the fact that if you’re filming at 120fps and you slow down to 24 fps, you’re slowing your frames by nearly 5 times.
Does YouTube allow 120fps?
To get high frame rate playback, watch a YouTube video at a quality of 720p or 1080p. In the quality menu, high frame rate will be listed next to the resolution. For example, a 1080p resolution video at 120 frames per second (FPS) will be listed as 1080p60.
How Slow Can You Make 120fps?
So, every second of footage captured at 120 fps is going to deliver 5 seconds of slow motion footage once you slow it down. Therefore, if you would like to have 30 seconds of slow motion, you should film 6 seconds of 120fps footage, and then slow it down to 24fps, to achieve the 30 seconds total footage in post.
Is Motion rate 120 the same as 120Hz?
So Motion Rate 240 indicates a native refresh of 120Hz while Motion Rate 120 means a 60Hz refresh.
Which Canon shoots 120fps?
HOW DOES IT COMPARE?
| EOS 90D EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Kit | PowerShot G7 X Mark III Black | |
|---|---|---|
| Slow Mo Resolution/fps | 720p/120fps | FHD/120fps |
| Autofocus | Dual Pixel | Dual Pixel |
| Sensor Size | APS-C | APS-C |
| Microphone Input | ⚫ | ⚫ |
Is there a DSLR camera that shoots 120fps?
There is no DSLR that shoots true 120fps at the moment. The specs in the Nikon D850 brochure claim that the max frame rate in FHD video is 60p. It claims ‘slo-mo’ as in captures 1920×1080 from the sensor in full frame mode, ie not cropped, also not interpolated, at 120fps, and then stores it as a 29.97fps video.
Can I shoot 4K at 120fps?
There are a few points to take into consideration when looking at cameras that shoot 4K at 120fps, such as the amount of data recorded. This is usually measured as 100mb/s (megabits per second) rather than 100mb per frame. Most cameras, especially mirrorless and DSLR, will therefore split the bit rate across frames as vbr (variable bit rate).
Why shoot 60fps instead of 120fps?
Ultimately 60fps is a sought-after feature as it enables you to shoot smooth slow motion, and these days it’s an effect that you as a filmmaker can’t be without, but do be careful as using it wrongly can have a dramatic effect. Why shoot 4K at 120fps? Recording at 4K at 120fps is pretty niche, but it’s still a fantastic feature to have in a camera.
Can a camera record 120fps at 1080p?
Likewise you’ll often see cameras such as the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV that will record 1080p at 60fps, but you need to drop the resolution to 720p to record at 120fps. It’s probably limited by Canon as the 4KMB/s is 500MB/s, which seems insanely high.
