News Summary

• There is a fundamental difference between shooting video and stills.
• The difference is due to the need to balance frame rate and shutter speed.
• When recording video, we want the shutter speed to be about twice the frame rate.
• If we shoot video at 60 frames per second and then play it back at 30 fps, everything in the frame will appear to move at half speed.
• To see the scene pass by at normal speed, the frames-per-second (fps) we record should normally match the playback speed.
