Lost Frames

PostWed Oct 17, 2018 3:14 pm

Hello all,

this is a most likely camera and not PP related topic. I shoot mainly photos and just started shooting videos. Using a Fuji X-H1, I posted my question in a Fuji forum but up to now no help there.

In some of my clips I experience what I would call "lost frames". The clip is not fluent and shows some kind of stutter. English is not my first language so it's hard to describe. See two examples:




Subtle but noticable.

My setup/settings:

-XH1 with XF16-55 mm lens
- 1080p, 16:9, 25p, F-log, bit rate 100 MB/s
- Battery grip, boost mode "on"
- 1/50 s, ISO 800, f/5.6 (2), WB fixed
- 2x SanDisk Extreme PRO 32 GB (SDHC II, 300 MB/s), sequential mode
- IBIS on
- Camera on a monopod

I thought about write speed to the card as being the problem and did a speed test with two different tools: Blackmagicdesign Disk Speed Test and HELIOS LanTest. I used a Lexar highspeed SD card connector for UHS II -> USB 3, because my internal card reader is far slower. Here are the results:

Sandisc Extreme Pro SDHC II 300 MB/s, Size: 32 GB, Helios LanTest write: 140 MB/s, BM write: 143 MB/s

So the SD cards seem to be fast enough.

Any idea about this phenomenon?

OK, this is only second best: Is there a fix I can do in post with Resolve?

Thanks,
Oli

I guess it's a problem between keyboard and chair :oops:
The clips were shot at 25 fps and the timeline has 24 fps. Maybe that's where the stutter comes from?
