Hello guys,

what is the best app or setting when one wants to film in 24fps to avoid the stutter that is presented when panning etc.?
How does one get the motion blur and the cinematic effect rather than sharp but choppy frames, please?

Very funny but thats not the issue. I'm sure there is a way to be able to get motion blur and get rid off this stutter effect
That *is* the main issue. You either need to increase your FPS or slow your movement down. Since you seem hellbent on staying at 24 FPS, your option is to slow your panning speeds.

Here is a source you can use to educate yourself:

Actually, its not. My panning speed is super slow. The issue here is that I could increase the framerate but that would take me out of 24fps which is not what I'm after. I'd assume that the solution would be with shutter speed as that will be the main problem here so I wondered how do people shoot 24fps and remove the stutter or if they use another good app that allows for motion blur and what app it would be.

Moving slower on already super slow panning is not the answer I was looking for nor is the solution. They don't do it in movies so there is a solution and its most likely in the settings.

You need nd filters to get motion blur. Your shutter speed is way to high. Rule of thumb is to get shutterspeed at twice you fps so in your case that would be a shutterspeed of 48. In most cases 48 is no option so tou go with 50.
Good luck.

Thank you, do you know if there is a way to set that up in the native camera app? OR any good camera app you would recommend, please?

Also, how does ND filter help with this? Aren't ND filters just to reduce exposure in super bright days/skies?

They force slower shutter speed if all other variables (ISO sensitivity and aperture value) remain the same, ie manually locked.

I see, that makes sense. A bit cumbersome though. Maybe iOS 16 will bring better customisation?
