Bad strobing on YPbPr output
by Chris Babbitt on Jul 24, 2008 at 5:07:31 am

For me, this whole transition from SD to HD and all it's various formats has been interesting, to say the least. Up until now, everything I have shot with my EX has been either 60p or 60i. Today, I experimented with 30p and 24p. I noticed a bit of what some call strobing in the viewfinder when panning, which I expected and didn't find objectionable. However, when I connected the camera to my HD monitor (both a 32" LCD and a 56" DLP) using the component cable, the pans look so bad, it's as though something is really wrong. I noticed that the YPbPr output on the camera is limited to 60p even though the footage was shot in 24 or 30p (page 117 of the manual). Could this be the reason why it looks so much worse on the monitor? It looks about the same in the clip browser as it looked while I was shooting, and the same in FCP as well, but it looks really bad when played back from the camera. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
