    Posted by Sam Lesante jr. on July 18, 2016 at 4:36 pm

    So I’m having this debate with someone who we bought a unit from years ago and it’s still not working (that’s another story.)

    He’s claiming that 59.94/sec is not an industry standard anymore. He’s says 60/sec is what the industry uses.

    I disagree obviously mostly because of the fact that most of products we use (Al lot from Black Magic) use 59.94 not 60.

    Thoughts?

    TIA

    Depends on the industry. Broadcast in the former NTSC bloc is 59.94, but a lot of the non-broadcast installations I work on run at 60.0.

    Depends on the industry. I just delivered a project for a mobile jumbotron-type screen, and the specs were 60.00p at 720p. If you’re in the mobile event screen industry, then maybe that’s the industry standard!

    Otherwise, for anything that’s going to show up on broadcast, 59.94/29.97/23.976 are the standard framerates.
