Re: GH4 video judder/strobing - a solution

I've come to the conclusion it's a frequency interference between my brain and 24fps.

When I look at the 24fps footage frame by frame, it all looks evenly continuous, no odd jumps.

The old style 50hz fluorescent lights would give me a headache in no time - I see their flicker constantly - when other claim they cannot. The new 100hz fluorescent tubes seem ok.

I might get used to the 24fps look (25fps has the same issues for me), but 29.97 just seems so so much sweeter to my brain.  I can't say I've had this issue at the cinema though, maybe projection softens the impact compared to LCD monitors, on the other hand I do remember a couple of occasions where I've walked out of a cinema mid-film...
