it doesn't say it's interlaced, the properties do say frame rate: 50 on the new 'fast ones'. I'm using a CFast card which has never failed me. Now, I have now done a 4k25 video (with shutter of 1/50), and it's much smoother and looks fine. Very bizarre.

indeed... my test "failed". Took 2 fresh videos, both at 4k50, one at 1/100, the other at 1/1000 - both are running at fast speed still :rolleyes:

Right, I not wonder if this might be my issue..... before taking the clips I was switching between photo's and videos, so my shutter speed will have been up at 1/1600 - 1/2000. Reading the correlation of frame rate to shutter speed can give a more robotised effect.... I am thinking this is also...

I think, rather than my concern whether the rate was shot at 25 or 50... the fact when downloaded it runs fast is the major problem.

This is what I don't understand - the file downloaded straight from the camera also says 25fps - but I'm 100% sure it was set to 50fps :S

I did wonder, but if you use something like vlc, you can set the playback. Does the youtube link above look too fast for you?

The effect I'm seeing, is using the raw video files before any editing :(

Thank you... I have had to resort to the manual lol.... I did find this: I think I'm going to abandon 4k movies for now, I'll change to ".mp4" format for maximum compatibility and stick to 1080p instead. :)

I've found it was set to PAL.... would that make a difference?

and avid media looks a bit too hardcore for me at this stage... I just want it to play at the correct speed :D (at the moment)

Yeah, that was my mis-type, it's a 1dx2 (sadly! lol )

just the standard windows video player :| - I'll go and have a look to see what canon say. but even the upload to youtube doesn't correct it? edit to add - downloaded eos movie utility from canons' site - on loading the video above, it plays the same high speed, even though it says playback...

I have no idea whats going on here.. Have done a couple of video clips yesterday, and it all seems to run too fast? I think the settings were 4k@50fps - but I've noticed the 'high frame rate' 120fps slow motion vids are also running fast than the slow motion? They playback fine on the camera...

Good plan, I tried without the converter, and it appeared to focus better, but the lighting was different, subject was closer etc. I'll give this a go though, as the same bird in the tree a couple of weeks ago was fine :| Will do :) Have also just updated the firmware (was way out of date), I...

Thanks guys, I'm heading out in a minute to do some more testing - maybe some less cluttered area. but yes, I did do centre spot, bang in the middle of the bird and it just wouldn't lock on.
