Sorry I just don’t understand. 4K is great and all, and all that time and effort into the lenses and setup and whatnot. But the result is a horrid FPS, and I mean horrid. Feels like your video quality turned back the clock 15 years.
24 fps was intentional. The intent is to mimic the framerate of motion picture film, but it depends on being able to match the framerate with a slow shutter speed. On my Canon I can lock the shutter speed to 1/48 and get a nice, natural-looking blur to the motion. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to do that yet on the Pixel 8 Pro. Third-party camera apps do offer the option to lock the shutter speed, but in my testing so far it seems that Google plays games with the camera API and the third party apps can only manage mono sound on the Pixel 8 Pro, while the default app does stereo just fine, so it's kind of a toss-up at the moment as to which app to use. Hopefully the third-party devs can sort things out and I won't have to settle for mono sound in favor of better shutter control. For comparison, my video of Ashland Train Day 2023 was done in 24p entirely on the Canon, as was my footage of the 2023 Cass Parade Of Steam.
