Thanks, Ryan.

The video took 2nd place. Then again, it wasn't determined on production quality but on whether the mass public thought it was entertaining.

I don't remember the technical reason, but I was taught that your shutter speed should be double what your frame rate is, i.e. 24p=1/48, 30p=1/60, and for some reason 60i=1/60 as well.

I'd say keep the shutter speed at 1/60th. That'll give you the better "film" look while on 30p. As far as the gain, you'll just have to see what it looks like when you are there.

Is there any...

I think only the 20x has the stabilizer (it's the only one I have ever used, so I could be wrong). The trade-off with the 3x, as you said, is you can get closer to the subject and still be able to...

Hi Wajahat...

I'd go with 30p...not as "jerky" (motion blurred) as 24p but still has that "film" feel. You might loose a stop or two of light, but it's worth it. There was a post here (I...
