This was one of cleanest best and straight to the point tutorial setups for the variable frame rates that we have seen! Well done! Sending a sub from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 cheers!
Great Help. Saved my butt when I couldn't find the manual and wanted to shoot slow motion for a friend's figure skating event in 15 minutes. Thanks a lot ! ! !
Thanks mate, this really helped, I just bought the GH5 with the Leica lens I own a Nikon D7200 and am very used to still photography but I don't know squat about video, so this is going to be a steep learning curve, I also got a Ronin S gimble a Rode NTG4+ with a blimp boom and a Tascam recorder, so now all I have to do is learn how to use it all plus learn how to edit video and audio, I'm guessing that'll take at least a year LOL, wish me luck !
Nice one Zack! Got my GH5 yesterday and was wondering why autofocus wasn't working in Variable Frame Rate mode, it's a bit of a bummer, but suppose I'll have to master the manual focus! Cheers mate!
Hi Zack, Thanks for this video. Today i installed the latest firmware on my GH5. When i do exactly as you showed, in exactly the same shooting mode, i can only choose 50p. There is no option for 60p. Could that be a change in the latest firmware, or maybe has to to with the max speed of my memory card? ( 64GB / 150Mb/s)
Is there a way you can change a recorded slow mo vid to a regular vid on gh5 cause when you record in the slow mo it has another time next to that shorter time in the gallery.
Can we keep the 180 fps record ? I mean, if I dont want that the GH5 do the slow motion but I want to keep the original footage at 180 fps, how can I do that ?
Excellent!..thanks for you detailed explanation of this feature...I just got my GH5 and will play around with this and set up a Slo Mo on C3 or C2......Question: while recording normally, what happens if you turn the dial to C3 (if you have set the slo mo on this)? Will it continue to record slo mo or do you have to stop the normal recording and then start a new recording in Slow Mo?
To my knowledge you have to stop and switch dial then start again. I believe if you turn dial with video recording it will keep current settings until you end the video, And will not register the setting change.
Awesome video man! Planning on getting this camera soon and I've been binge watching so many videos on this camera! One question: for how long can you record in VFR? As in one continuous take? Thanks in advance!
Im not positive, but I am assuming as long as your card will take data. There is no recording limit on this camera so there shouldn't be an issue with it cutting off. Sorry for the late response!
You may need to work on it in you’re editing software, all the data should be there you just need to manually slow the speed through the software, try than and let me know and we will go from there
I'm embarrassed that I didn't know I could get 180fps at 1080p. I bought this camera because the unlimited 4k recording time and is the cherry on top I didn't know existed
That's Awesome! Its a great camera, I no longer have one, But it was by far one of my favorite camera bodies. Let me know if there is anything else you may have a question about!
I really like your video.It has helped a lot. Can you help me with something. I record in 24 fps, Angle 180, VFR 180, when I put it in my timeline it automatically is slowed down, but to do speed-ramping I can't figure out how to get the footage to play in 24fps to then slow down only the parts I want slowed down. Do you know how?
Grizle Me Hmm I’m not sure, I can check into it though, I know you can go on there and speed up the slow motion footage wile in your editing software, but to have it do it automatically I’m not really sure, I actually preferred to have it show in my timeline what is in slow motion because those clips do not have sound and it helps me keep track of what I need to pay extra attention to, if that makes sense. To make sure I don’t miss anything and know where my slow motion clips are
Wild Israel Yuval Dax No, that’s one of the flaws of the gh5, autofocus does not work with high frame rates. You will have to manual focus, which is a good and a bad thing. You don’t have to worry about the focus jumping around, but you do have to do more work to achieve what you want. I set up high frame rate on a custom dial so I could just switch to it when I need it, then switch back quickly to get back to auto focus
Hmm, first thing I would do is go into your settings and see if the camera was set up in PAL instead of NTSC. I know they have different recording options for each and that could be your problem. Let me know and we will go from there
Yes to my knowledge you just don't have as smooth of footage when filmed in 24fps. If filmed in 60fps you have just a little bit extra manipulation head room in post Sorry for the comment delay, youtube didn't notify me that I had any!
Seriously- what's the real difference between running 4K 24P/VFR/60P and 4K at 60P? You will get autofocus and sound at 4K/60P, and the slow-motion is great.
