I shot my last video in 60FPS and couldn't use some shots because of the light. Now I know why haha, next time i'll try 30FPS in the bathrooms and darker spaces. Thanks for the tips.
I shot my videos in 60 FPS and when I slow it down to 40 it looks really choppy. I have tried everything look at so many tutorials and no answer yet. Do you know why is that? I'll try 30 FPS and see how that goes. I love your videos!! Your voice is so soothing, nothing like other guys that tried to scream at you over the screen.
Thanks! So.. 60fps at 40% speed on 24fps timeline is what you're saying looks choppy? First thing I'd check is: Was your shutter speed right (1/120 or 1/125 shutter speed depending on what the camera option is)? That will affect it if it's not right. Also depending on what look you're going for with your videos you might actually like working on a 30fps timeline and converting your 60fps footage to 50% speed instead. It ends up looking super sharp and more detailed than 24fps timeline which can be a good thing if you like it (more sharp on reels, social media, etc) But for the more "cinematic" look 24fps is usually the go-to since it feels more natural to watch.
I have even shot 60-fps in low light areas at SS-50 and reduced it to 40 per cent in post. It comes good and unnoticeable if they are a few second clips of passages, etc. Everything is about the final product.
Great info! Thanks for sharing. I have a question a bit off topic, but how do you deliver real estate videos to clients? I'm just starting out and wasn't sure of the best method.
Thanks! Whatever is most convenient. I like Google Drive. Some people like Dropbox , some upload to clients TH-cam Channels/facebook for a little extra fee .. some make custom sites too.
Are you slowing down your 30fps clips after putting them on a 24fps timeline, or is it that once you put 30fps clips on a 24fps timeline it automatically slows it down to 80%? Thanks!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo ok cool, so you're dropping your 30fps clips on a 24fps timeline, and then slowing it down to 80%? I'm using final cut right now, but also davinci. I'm not crazy about how final cut makes me load all my video onto my HD instead of being able to edit from my memory card like in davinci.
Yeah! I just put everything on the timeline, then highlight it and change the speed and have ripple checked so it expands them, or if I have already edited to music I might not check it. I haven't tried editing from a memory card but I would assume you could since I edit from an external hard drive (same concept functionally, external file storage). How are you organizing your footage / importing it? Might be a few things to select differently to make it work. But i've never done it so i'm not sure.. just coming up with ideas to try to help!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo oh ok cool thanks! So in davinci resolve, I've been editing from my Pgytech memory card reader instead of loading everything onto my MacBook HD and that's how premier works too if I remember correctly. With Final cut it makes me import to my MacBook HD first. There is an option to edit from the memory card reader, but final cut views it as storage from the camera. So I was reading some blogs and they said you had to move it to a new folder first somehow which they didn't give instruction on haha.
Hi Taylor, great video! I have the Sony A7S3, for interiors video, using tripod+fluid head and sliders, also gimbal, what camera Image stabilisation mode would you chose - sony have Active/Standard and None. I was also looking to shoot at XAVCS4k, either 25p 100M 4.2.0 8bit or 50p 150M 4.2.0 8 bit. Do you think going from 8 to 10 bit is really noticeable? thanks in advance
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Thanks Taylor, I've just read in the sony A7S3 manual to switch OFF the Steady Shot when on a tripod, but am not sure this applies when am using a fluid head for pan and tilts and slider. Am guessing for gimbal can use Active or Standard.
Hey! Average is probably 2-3 min. But really, I think they should be as short as possible while still getting the main point across so 1-2min if it’s possible !
A big problem with shooting at any framerate is LED light flicker with higher shutter speeds. Once you start going past 1/50th, you start getting light flicker due to the AC cycles at 60Hz. What no one talks about is how to avoid that. Sure, you can turn off the lights, but from experience, when you deal with interior lighting, you'd have to shoot 30fps with 1/50th shutter. Technically, that is the simplest solution. Yes, 60fps is the most versatile but it only works when you don't use interior lighting.
Hey ! Not totally sure what the question is coming from. But busy probably means lots going on, lots of info in the shot (wide shot showing connecting rooms and lots of features etc) vs less busy (detail shot isolating one thing with blurry background etc). In case you meant “Noisy” that is where there are pixelly color artifacts in the video that you can see moving making it look bad, usually in shadows if you have to use a high ISO. Can fix with some noise reduction but basically it’s bad because it means you don’t have much detail in that area to work with so it might end up just looking soft or fake after noise reduction. Hope that answers what you were trying to get down :)
When I bring my 60 fps into my timeline. Should I create my timeline at 24 and then my 60 FPS footage automatically gets downgraded? Or do I need to put my 60 FPS clips into the timeline and then slow them down manually to 40% speed? Using DaVinci.
You have to change it at some point. (On timeline or modify footage before adding it to timeline) I forget what you do in Davinci but usually you can select your footage before using it and modify it instead of having to manually change it for every shot on the timeline to speed things up.
Thanks Taylor! I have been shooting at 1080p 60fps for realestate videos but going to start shooting 4k 30fps (for most houses) and smooth out my movements a bit. This really helps!
Great info there Taylor. Thanks for sharing all the tips and tricks with us! Love the footage examples at the end to show a demonstration of each. It helps wrap up the whole thing!
As always, very helpful and also reminded me of a time I tinkered with shutter speed in a very low light similar to the shot you showed...but I wasn't careful. I used some slow panning shots that absolutely did not work at these slow shutter speeds. My question is " what is the lowest shutter speed for a given frame rate that can produce useable footage IF you are slow and careful in your moves? Are push in shots the safest?
Probably the real answer is just What can you do where the camera actually moves the least least amount in real life 😆 still shot on a tripod and add some slight key framing in post, or barely barely push forward for 10 seconds and you are probably the best off (w/ no pan or tilt)
Worth noting that in EU we shoot at 50 or 25 fps since our electrical grid runs at 50hz as opposed to 60. Otherwise you'll introduce a lot of flickering. So I usually shoot at 50p at 1/100 to then slow it down 60%.
@@asmashingwayita9200 yes you want the video to playback at 25fps always (for PAL). Then when you export it, it will be a 25fps. Unless you specifically want smooth motion but 99% work in a 25fps timeline then you can slow down 50p footage to that speed.
Thanks Taylor, I always watch your tutorials and find them really super helpful. But, I’m confused on this. I shot some tests at 30 and 60fps, set my timeline to 24.796 and changed the clips to the same before adding them to the project. Yet they are jerky. What have I done wrong…?
Hey! What were your shutter speeds and how did you change the speed of the footage ? If percentages what did you use for each frame rate ? I’d think it’s one of those things that’s slightly off.
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo thanks for answering. Shutter speed was double the frame rate and I changed each clip to the same as the timeline rate in DaVinci Resolve via clip attributes before adding them to the timeline. I’m sure that’s correct?
@@Fotoadsza Yeah, interesting! Is there a reason you're using 24.796 instead of 24 or 23.9..? I think most people that use 25fps (ish) timeline film in 50fps or something else higher. I forget what the other options are since my camera isn't set up for other countries options. So I'm thinking maybe it's just a weird conversion. Or it could be playing back bad while editing and look fine after exporting. If you don't need to use 25(ish) fps try switching the timeline to 24 and see if that fixes it :)
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo thanks Taylor. Typo, I meant 23.9... I’ve tried others including 24 but still get the same jerkiness when changing/reducing the clip speed to match the timeline. Tried exporting to see if it plays smoothly but no. Not to worry, I’ll carry on shooting and editing in 30fps. (29.9..). That seems to work, but I just have to be really careful not to shake when filming. I also use stabilisation in resolve which helps. Thanks for the suggestions, really appreciate the help.
@@Fotoadsza Weird! No worries. I would just triple check every single thing and make sure there isn't anything that's not matching up with each step from frame rates - shooting settings - importing options - timeline settings - speed change process - exporting. Also maybe try just shooting at the same timeline speed you like in-camera and see if that even plays back smoothly as a control in the experiment. Also alternative options for changing speed might work too instead of interpreting the footage. I haven't done much of that in DaVinci so I'm not sure. Hope you can get it figured out! I know that kind of stuff can be frustrating.
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo what do you think about 50 timeline and slowing it it 100p 2x slow when needed? Is there a camera that can record audio still on 100 fps?
I do real estate video walk throughs that on TH-cam and shoot in 60fps. When panning a room or backyard, I feel like it gets blurry.. should I be shooting in 24fps?
What are your other settings ? Shutter speed & Final playback speed after editing ? If either are too low you might be getting too much motion blur or might not have enough frames in the final edit. Shutter speed should be 1/120 or higher for 60fps to get normal motion blur and capture enough frames.
Another great video with valuable tips! Would you consider making a video showing how camera and drone footage is edited together (possibly focussing on fps!?)
This is Great. Thank you! Do you have any videos on tips with lighting issues in real estate videography? I have issues with blown out windows and dark corners of homes. I also have issues with the super yellow closet lights verses the natural lighting in the rooms
Not totally sure! But I’ll put it on the list. Some things you’ll just have to accept and work with the best your camera can do. But I definitely recommend dialing in custom Kelvin color temperatures for each shot & prioritizing interior exposures unless the view is super important. What camera do you have?
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo I have the Canon 5D Mark IV and I love it. I am still learning with the video aspect and its hard to do correct lighting exposures when going into darker rooms that have bright corners of light due to windows.
Definitely understand! That’s going to be an issue with any camera. Only things you can really do are shoot from another angle, wait for it to be more of an even exposure, or try to get the interior brighter by adding lighting but that’s about it. Cameras with LOG video help a bit but it’s still hard to deal with on basically any camera.
Thank you for such an amazing video! After a couple of years of doing spatial photography, yesterday I tried at videography with a gimbal. Although I knew a lot about fps and shutter speed correlation, it still felt a bit confusing on site and I shot everything at 60fps. Managing low light is a task I feel and the 1/25 for 24fps shot will be very useful in the future. Just popping here to say, you are one of the reliable guys for anything related to spatial photography/ videography.
Nice, this helps a lot! I have a question, if I want to shoot everything at 4K to downscale it later in post but I own a camera that films only 4K in 30fps and HD 60fps, how can I edit later in post footage with 4Kfps and footage with HD 60fps without loosing quality? What's the best approach so at the end the HD footage won't look bad? In other words, editing mixing resolution footage. Thanks!
Hi Taylor - really like your videos, they are so helpful. I shot my first video at 30 fps and edited at 24. On pan movements the video flickers. It's barely noticeable in premiere pro but very noticeable after export. Is there a remedy for that?
Hey there, I'm just some random person on the internet. But I would ask if you interpreted your footage to 24fps or did you create a 24fps timeline, place 30fps footage on that timeline and then change the "Speed" to 80%? I do the latter and it works well for me. Sometimes, in the speed and duration panel, (right click, click speed and duration), change the drop-down to Optical Flow can help reduce the flickering you're experiencing as well.
I'm going from the Canon M50 to the Canon R50 soon, and 4k@30fps looks good when slowing it down for shooting real estate videos. With the R50, it's uncropped and will be paired with the Nisi 9mm f/2.8 lens. This is the best aps-c lens available for shooting real estate for RF mount. Cool video!
Always look forward to your videos. You explain fundamentals in an easy to follow entertaining manner. That being said, do you have a video on how to make windows look perfectly exposed when shooting HDR and using Lightroom? Thank you and keep making these excellent videos
Great video! do you think for filming detailed shots your better of with a zoom lens? I have a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 prime lens for my Fuji xt3 and im finding it hard to get some shots in frame, when im trying to get a foreground in where i cant move too forward or when im filming above me or below me where i cant move much. Thank you!
Whatever makes more sense for you! 24-70’s are great but I just like the more wide aperture personally so it’s worth it to work with just the 50 and 85/100s
If it’s a high end stove the way the burners work is a selling feature important to some ppl and it looks cool :) but 6 sec is probably too long for almost any shot, I’d go for 3-4 for most, max. Unless there’s a long camera movement and it needs the time for the information to play out.
Awesome breakdown! Another drawback for shooting interiors at 60fps is if there’s cheap lighting in the home, you’re going to get obvious banding or whatever that’s called going up and down your image. Not as bad in 30 or 24!
That's because the USA uses 60hertz, if you know that you are recording in-door and you have no control of the light to change it's hertz use 30fps. Outside always 60fps.
I would love to see an example. We've shot homes for years with all types of lighting and I can't find an example of banding because we shot at a fps higher than 30. Maybe it's the camera? Anyways, we've had bigger issues filming below 60fps and ran into issues with choppy footage because we moved too fast in a scene... I see someone commented on that issue above. 30fps is perfect if you don't move quickly, have no desire to slow down your footage significantly and fly your drone at a snail's pace. Yes, you can get the same result if you plan it out, but there's no thinking at 60fps and above.
@@jambononi Always shoot real estate at 60fps / 1/125s regardless of device and we edit on a 30fps or a 24fps timeline. No reason to shoot at 30fps over 60fps. 60fps is an insurance policy.
Hi. You have helped me a lot over the past few month with a few tips here and there. Relating to this video, I use my iPhone 11 for real estate on 4k 60 frames. Would you suggest reducing to 24 frames and what could I expect differently? Love your work. Thanks Gwia
The best frame rate is 60fps. ALWAYS film on the default hertz of your country. In the USA is around 60Hertz and EU 50Hertz. Also, people in TH-cam get miss information about frames rates and other cameras technical things. Your device/monitor/display/television will create the missing frames to match it's hertz. To avoid bad motion and artifacts on video always film in 60fps if you can. If you film in 30fps, render at 60fps to upload to TH-cam or Stream so TH-cam software/encoders produce the best compression and quality. Avoid filming at 30fps or 60fps is the biggest mistake anyone can do today. Also, 24fps is a unicorn frame rate, it does not gives a cinematographic look and yes low quality playback and bad motion in some devices/monitors even with using proper shutter angle.

Only things you can really do are shoot from another angle, wait for it to be more of an even exposure, or try to get the interior brighter by adding lighting but that’s about it. Cameras with LOG video help a bit but it’s still hard to deal with on basically any camera.
Thank you again for breaking down this topic! Thumbs up, please do not stop doing these videos.. you are like my cheat sheet 😂
what site do you use for royalty free music? i been looking and not sure what to use for real estate videos.
Finally a helpful video I've been looking for! Thank you!
Glad to help!
Thank you for such an amazing video! After a couple of years of doing spatial photography, yesterday I tried at videography with a gimbal. Although I knew a lot about fps and shutter speed correlation, it still felt a bit confusing on site and I shot everything at 60fps. Managing low light is a task I feel and the 1/25 for 24fps shot will be very useful in the future. Just popping here to say, you are one of the reliable guys for anything related to spatial photography/ videography.
Thanks for the support!! I appreciate that. Glad to help :)
Nice, this helps a lot! I have a question, if I want to shoot everything at 4K to downscale it later in post but I own a camera that films only 4K in 30fps and HD 60fps, how can I edit later in post footage with 4Kfps and footage with HD 60fps without loosing quality? What's the best approach so at the end the HD footage won't look bad? In other words, editing mixing resolution footage. Thanks!
Hi Taylor - really like your videos, they are so helpful. I shot my first video at 30 fps and edited at 24. On pan movements the video flickers. It's barely noticeable in premiere pro but very noticeable after export. Is there a remedy for that?
Hey there, I'm just some random person on the internet. But I would ask if you interpreted your footage to 24fps or did you create a 24fps timeline, place 30fps footage on that timeline and then change the "Speed" to 80%? I do the latter and it works well for me. Sometimes, in the speed and duration panel, (right click, click speed and duration), change the drop-down to Optical Flow can help reduce the flickering you're experiencing as well.
Thanks for sharing! Somehow I missed this one 😲 PS we’re all random ppl on the internet lol
@Taylor Brown - lol, that's true, I guess 😅
Here's to being random people on the internet!
@@JonathanAyers I reset all of the individual 30 fps clips to 24fps, then dragged them one by one into a 24 fps timeline.
I'm going from the Canon M50 to the Canon R50 soon, and 4k@30fps looks good when slowing it down for shooting real estate videos. With the R50, it's uncropped and will be paired with the Nisi 9mm f/2.8 lens. This is the best aps-c lens available for shooting real estate for RF mount. Cool video!
Nice! Hope you like it. I haven’t tried any of those out yet. Let me know how it goes
✌
✌️
That was helpful, straight to the point, no nonsense talks... It's simply great outstanding video.
Thank you.
Haha thank you!
Excellent breakdown of the fps and uses. 👍
Always look forward to your videos. You explain fundamentals in an easy to follow entertaining manner. That being said, do you have a video on how to make windows look perfectly exposed when shooting HDR and using Lightroom? Thank you and keep making these excellent videos
Great video! do you think for filming detailed shots your better of with a zoom lens? I have a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 prime lens for my Fuji xt3 and im finding it hard to get some shots in frame, when im trying to get a foreground in where i cant move too forward or when im filming above me or below me where i cant move much. Thank you!
Whatever makes more sense for you! 24-70’s are great but I just like the more wide aperture personally so it’s worth it to work with just the 50 and 85/100s
Very helpful. On the rail I shoot at 30FPS, and on the gimbal at 60FPS, all at 1/60, but will try 1/125 next time out.
Nice! Do you use a slider a lot?? Would love to see what you do with it
This was really good. Thank you
What is the point to show the stove flame for 6 sec ?
If it’s a high end stove the way the burners work is a selling feature important to some ppl and it looks cool :) but 6 sec is probably too long for almost any shot, I’d go for 3-4 for most, max. Unless there’s a long camera movement and it needs the time for the information to play out.
Really helpful info! I'm currently working with a Canon 80D and being that it is APS-C, low light scenarios can be challenging at 60 fps.
They are even for full frame! What lens are you using?
The Canon EF-S 10-18 @@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo
Awesome breakdown! Another drawback for shooting interiors at 60fps is if there’s cheap lighting in the home, you’re going to get obvious banding or whatever that’s called going up and down your image. Not as bad in 30 or 24!
That's because the USA uses 60hertz, if you know that you are recording in-door and you have no control of the light to change it's hertz use 30fps. Outside always 60fps.
I would love to see an example. We've shot homes for years with all types of lighting and I can't find an example of banding because we shot at a fps higher than 30. Maybe it's the camera? Anyways, we've had bigger issues filming below 60fps and ran into issues with choppy footage because we moved too fast in a scene... I see someone commented on that issue above. 30fps is perfect if you don't move quickly, have no desire to slow down your footage significantly and fly your drone at a snail's pace. Yes, you can get the same result if you plan it out, but there's no thinking at 60fps and above.
@@jfizzle choppy footage at 30fps? Do you edit in a 60fps timeline or use a very very high shutter speed?
@@jambononi Always shoot real estate at 60fps / 1/125s regardless of device and we edit on a 30fps or a 24fps timeline.
No reason to shoot at 30fps over 60fps. 60fps is an insurance policy.
@jfizzle so versatile!
Very helpful. Thank you
Thanks!
Hi. You have helped me a lot over the past few month with a few tips here and there.
Relating to this video, I use my iPhone 11 for real estate on 4k 60 frames.
Would you suggest reducing to 24 frames and what could I expect differently?
Love your work.
Thanks

Read my comment! Avoid 24fps, 25fps and 50fps at all cost!
@@InteractiveDNA ?
great video!!
Thanks!
great insights thanks a lot :) could you do an entire shoot without using 60 fps? my camera only shoots 4k at 30 fps max so I was wandering :)
For sure! You can do whatever you like. It's just a creative choice.
The best frame rate is 60fps. ALWAYS film on the default hertz of your country. In the USA is around 60Hertz and EU 50Hertz. Also, people in TH-cam get miss information about frames rates and other cameras technical things. Your device/monitor/display/television will create the missing frames to match it's hertz. To avoid bad motion and artifacts on video always film in 60fps if you can. If you film in 30fps, render at 60fps to upload to TH-cam or Stream so TH-cam software/encoders produce the best compression and quality. Avoid filming at 30fps or 60fps is the biggest mistake anyone can do today. Also, 24fps is a unicorn frame rate, it does not gives a cinematographic look and yes low quality playback and bad motion in some devices/monitors even with using proper shutter angle.
You need a bit of on screen personality mate
Thanks
