Question

EOS R5 footage important at 29.97

Hi

 

I am somewhat new to Premiere Pro (mostly just dabbled with iMovie and Da Vinci Resolve).  When I import footage from my EOS R5, often shot in 4K 120 onto a 23.976 fps timeline (all footage is either 23.976 or 120) everything shows up as 29.97 fps.  Has anyone seen this?  Is it because of existing known issues with the R5 and Premiere Pro?

Thanks for the hint.  I'll post my mediainfo screenshots soon.  Looking at them, all the ones I took at 23.976 show up as 23.976, and all the ones I took at 120 fps look like they're showing up at 29.97 fps.  Let me run some experiments and return. It might be user error.  Attaching an example

I've done more experiments including on human subjects (not just swimming ducks). It's definitely slowing it down and transfering as 29.97.


I'm having the same issue with my R5C. Wondering if it's a camera setting, maybe needs a firmware update? Was recording some clips in 29.97 and some in 120, and flipping back and forth a bunch during my shoot. The footage all says 29.97 in PR -- even though some is 120 and some is 29.97. It is playing it in the timeline It plays as if it were 120 (because it is), and the rest of the footage plays correctly at 29.97. The problem is I want to interpret the 120 footage as if it were 29.97 to speed it it up, but since PR thinks it already is, I can't. Very confused!

I am using version 14.5 but had this problem in prior versions as well.
