Issues with 50fps in 1080p Sony a7s ii


Recommended Posts

Shooting 1080p at 50fps gives me footage that isn't good quality. I am seeing what I can call aliasing and moire issues. Footage looks this way straight out of the camera, so it is nothing to do with post processing on my part. I performed some tests where i shot the same subject at 25fps and again at 50fps. The 25 fps looks much much better. 

I am setting shutter speed to 1/100 with 50 fps and 1/50 with 25 fps. Other setting such as pp are the same.

 

All this time I thought that it's me doing something wrong, but now I am starting to think that there is a problem with the camera.. 

Is there anybody who experienced this?

Hello, I'm having the same problem. I identified a hot pixel and sent my camera to do a remapping of the sensor in a sony assist. Now I notice an aliasing and very strong moire. I always shot at 50fps shuter 100 and the A7s II always seemed quite tolerable with moire. Now I'll go back to the store again.
 

Hi. I'm having the same problem.

I believe this is a problem with this camera.

I identified a hot pixel and sent my camera to do a remapping of the sensor in a sony assist.

Now I notice aliasing and very strong moiré. I always shot at 50fps shutter 1/100

and the A7sII always seemed quite tolerable with moire. Now I'll go back to the store again.

Regards

I'd suggest one test which may or may not prove anything....  keep your shutter speed at 1/100th at both 25fps and 50fps... and see if you are seeing the same quality issues on the 25fps foottage with the same shorter sensor exposure time.

For 25fps open your aperture 1 stop to compensate for the speed change from 1/50th to 1/100th, leave ISO the same...  just so you are only changing one factor that isn't part of the sensor itself.

Just thinking it might be an effect of the shortened exposure time in video....?

    • I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.
    • Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
