k-x and video information

oriweissman · 03-08-2011, 02:35 AM

hi all!
this is my first post in this GREAT forum

I got my new K-X 2 weeks ago

I read about how to shoot video in 1/48-50 shutter speed which is the best raccomended shutter speed for 24p. the only problem is that I dont know how to check the REAL settings of the recorded video (like in pic mode where you can see the current settings of the ISO, shutter...) ... is there a way I can check my current video settings in real time in order to be sure I'm shooting realy in 1/50?

thanks!

Invert the frames per second to get shutter speed

thank you

mmm.. sorry but I didnt understand...
my problem is how to check the settings of a RECORDED video, most of all the shutter speed in which it was recorded.

Right click and view properties of the file in explorer it will tell you the frames per second. If it says 48 frames per second then the slowest shutter speed you could have shot the video is 1/48 second.

The problem is not knowing the fps - it's always 24.
The thing I want to know is the shutter speed settings for each recorded video.
basicly, After shooting a video based on the method in this article I want to be sure that the video was REALY recorded in 1/50... how can I check this?
thanks

The article you refer to refers to a thread started by Johnnybodybags in this selfsame forum. Why dont you PM Johnny and ask him or post in his thread?
