1080 60p vs 1080 30 question
The camera I am using his no setting for 30p or 29.97p. It only offers 1080/60p.
I am editing in 30p, so does this mean that every other frame is thrown away? Does FCPX access those frames if I time stretch a clip?
What camera is this exactly? 1080p60 usually means 59.94fps. If you edit in a 29.97fps half the frames are thrown away. The purpose of shooting a high frame rate and editing at a lower frame rate is usually to allow you to conform the video to the full frame rate to create slow motion.
