Hello Everyone.

With Sony PXW-Z150, you can shoot 120fps, for slow motion. Is it better to shoot at the beginning S&Q 120fps, or just shoot normal like 24p, or 30p, and later in Premiere Pro make changes to the Time in the Effects?

Thanks.

    Dear. shooternz.

    Yes I Tested, and Its much better when you are shooting with the camera. Before I got this camera I was shooting  with my Canon 5D,

    I also had the Canon XHA1S.  Shooting With 5D, I had a choice of using Different L-Series Lenses. Specially shooting with 180 Macro Lens, and its Impossible to get that look with any Video Camera. But, there are certain times that it is very hard to shoot with 5D, that's why I got this video camera. There are some issues with this camera that I realized.

    1- Very Poor In Low Light.

    2- Shooting 4K, you have one choice while Recording: Camera LCD, Or External Monitor. Not Both. In other words Camera LCD Shuts off.

    NOTE: I use my ZACUTO Z FINDER PRO

    Also, ZEEBRA, and PEEKING Is Disable on the External Monitor

    3- Very Confusing going back and forth Auto/Manual,

    4- White balance ICON A. Is not Auto its for Custom White Balance

    Its a function on some Sony Camera that allows variable frame rate shooting.

    Slow and Quick

    Got it.  Thanks.

    (I wish we had that option on the forums.  Someone has definitely hit the Slow button by mistake.  20 seconds to load a page!  Sheesh!
