Does anyone find the lack of 24fps on the 5Dm2 disappointing?

Sep 23, 2008

Anyone finding the lack of 24fps on the 5D Mark II disappointing?

I've been watching Vincent's video, and while I can't say I've pinpointed the problem, each single still frame looks gorgeous on its own, but when they all run together the motion just looks too crisp and exact. It doesn't "flow" as smoothly and immerse you into the scene the same way that movie video does.

I don't know if this is 24fps as the problem, or maybe it's an issue with the shutter speeds used?

Anyone else getting the same feeling?
