Hey guys just a quick thought!

What frame rate do you guys usually shoot in? I usually shoot 24 fps but want to see what other Frame rates you guys use

Great question! Depends the content for IRL stuff I do 24fps for a more cinematic look! However, for streams I find 30FPS works better, and plays better live, ideally 60FPS for the "LIve Look" Similar to gaming I usually record that in 60FPS! I guess for me it depends the content! :D

Ha ha..sounds cool. I'm very new to videography , photography is my hobby and wow it's a whole new world lol. I love cinematic looks too so that's why I shoot mostly 24fps unless I wanna get some really cool broll footage I shoot in 60fps since that's the highest I can go with my current camera then process as 24fps in post. Took me a while to get used to premiere .I've used both final cut and premiere and both get the job done It on their own ways lol.

I agree! Another thing to consider for higher FPS I shoot sometimes in 120FPS for slow mo on my GH5, and I love it, it's only downside is limited to 1080p XD What resolution are you shooting in? Full HD? 4k? 8K? :)

Tried 4k but was too draining on my editing software..

Well, many films have been shot on film frames half the size of micro 4/3. 16mm and Super 16mm film frames have shot more documentary films over the years than anything. Hard pressed to stay those don't look "cinematic."

APS-C sensors are very close to Academy 35mm--full frame for motion picture. Canon 5d what photographers call "full-frame" is Vista Vision in motion picture terms. So the camera doesn't matter, you're not limited, and you can achieve whatever look you want on any of these modern cameras.

Also cinematic is more shot composition, story telling, lighting, then format you shot it in like Full HD or 4K! :)
