iPhone 6s video frame rate confusion
WHy are the frame rates all stuck at 30fps (frames per second on the iPhones.????
As a movie industry professional, we shoot EVERYTHING at 24 fps. This is a standard frame rate that is similar to the frame rate of film camera and ALL MOVIES are shot at this frame rate. The digital versions n is 23.98fps. Now in the 1950s they came up with TV and they could only create a 30fps frame rate which allowed the interlaced image to be seen correctly and was the standard format, called NTSC until HD came out in the early 2000s. Once this format came out we no longer needed the crazy 30fps. Everything could look more lIke movies instead of news and soap operas which where shot native NTSC back in the day.
yet somehow the crazy 30fps has made it to iPhones????? Can someone tell me why????
24fps is far better for everyone, for every reason. In order to upload you videos to the Internet, 30fps adds 6 frames per second to your videos. This makes the data size of your movie MUCH, MUCH larger for frames we don't need. There is NO standard frame rate for the Internet, it can play any frame rate.... yet with broad band speeds and buffering, why in the world would you add 6 more frames PER second to your videos?? Just insanity!!
PLease Apple, you must have a few video experts and n your staff or the ability to consult someone that can help you understand that 30fps is a giant waste.
now lets talk 4K. So who in the heck knows what 4K is??? This is clearly a movie industry format that your trying to tap into. And again, in the actual movie industry that actually shoots this format, they shoot.... 24fps. So once again, why!!!! Would you add 6 more 4K frames to every second of 4K video?? Are you trying to use up my internal storage faster??? What are you thinking???? 24fps is the standard and should be maintained.
Also, why would you NOT create the option for me to switch the frame rate to whatever I want?? Hello? Is anyone home at Apple? I can't believe that any professional would receive mm end you can se 30fps. Please explain.
