  • Best Frame Rate when using a DSLR on a Glidecam

    Posted by Dean Longfield on September 15, 2015 at 6:53 pm

    I had been shooting 30P when using a DSLR on a Glidecam HD 4000.
    Then I began shooting Glidecam footage in 24P and when moving left to right and vice versa, (x/y axis), the footage is getting the rolling shutter jello/trailing effect.

    It also did this on 30P but not nearly as much. Any way to correct this?
    I’ve tried moving slower which helps, but at 24P I have to move so slow that it’s taking away from the desired – moving camera – effect.

    Has anyone tried shooting Glidecam / Steadicam footage in 60P ?

    Thanks.

    So can you try 60p, or faster ?

    This seems like a how-to-control-rolling-shutter for youR CAM more than a glidecam question – where the “best” frame rate will be the one that cuts into your sequence and looks haow you want it to fast, jerky, smooth … whatever suits the sequence.)
