High frame rates make stuff look like it was shot on security cameras -- nm - con_carne Apr 25, 08:35 6
- But if you compensate for the effect with good lighting, familiar angles, and stellar cinematography - it might overcome that effect. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 25, 08:37
- you can't recognise anyone in the picture? -- nm - zork Apr 25, 08:37
- why is that? I thought high frame rates would look better. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 08:37 3
  - Uncanny smoothness - con_carne Apr 25, 08:43
  - The best DVD example I've seen in favour of 30fps+ is the opening credits to Nic Cage's gone in 60 seconds -- nm - Beryllium Apr 25, 08:40
  - too smooth, no flicker apparently. -- nm - zork Apr 25, 08:38
I disagree. The Average movie goer has no idea what you are talking about -- nm - Beaker Apr 25, 08:26 3
- The average moviegoer has a brain that tells them "omg what are my eyes seeing?". Whether that is good or bad remains to be seen. - Beryllium Apr 25, 08:29 1
  - I have a feeling it will dowl people over in an Avatar way. If not, they can drop half the frames and show it at 24fps. -- nm - zork Apr 25, 08:35
- "WTH? This looks like video, not film." -- nm - TWuG Apr 25, 08:28
for me, it would depend on the subject, genre, etc. I'm certainly not against 48 and if all going forward were that, I'm ok. -- nm - zork Apr 25, 08:18
