Canon m50 film settings
Posted by Paulo Soares on May 1, 2018 at 10:43 amHi Guys, I just purchased the canon m50 with the 11-22mm lense. When i film it looks very un HD and grainy.
I have tired shooting in fully auto and manual. Also in 50fps 1080p and 25fps 1080p
I am new to this, am i doing something wrong? I’m trying to use this as a film camera

May 2, 2018 at 5:01 pmIf you are trying to shoot 24fps, make sure the shutter is 1/50. Same for 25fps. This is the equivalent of 180 degree shutter of a film camera for the correct motion blur.

If you don’t have 1/48 or a 180 degree shutter, you should shoot in 1/60 in North America. You really should shoot 1/60 for 24fps anyway, the difference is negligible and 99% of everyone would fail a blind test between the two.

I meant 1/50. But typed too fast on my iPhone. I’m hiring you to be my proof reader. You start Monday.

I know you did, that’s exactly what I’m responding to. You should not shoot 1/50 in North America as a general rule.

October 22, 2018 at 3:02 amNo actually that’s incorrect. You should shoot at 1/50. Even canon recommends that. 1/60 is if you want to shoot 30p. In the US if you want to shoot 24p on a dslr you Shoot 1/50. Do this here in Hollywood.

“You should really shoot 1/60, not 1/50. Less chance of flicker, especially from uncontrolled sources.
You would fail a blind test between 1/50 and 1/60.

October 22, 2018 at 4:14 amI don’t know what you shoot but in Los Angeles when we use Canon Dslr cameras for features adn TV the shutter speed is set to 1/50. If you want a video look and 30p shoot 1/60.
This is how it’s done to emulate a180 degree shutter. 1/50 is 178 degrees. It’s as close to 180 degrees and 1/48 as you can get.

Hey, if you’re fine with flicker, that’s great. You wouldn’t be able to differentiate 1/50 24p vs 1/60 24p in a blind test. You would fail that.
