I shot this test clip half an hour ago, in 60p, 1/120 shutter speed, and then interpreted it at the frame rate of 23.97fps in premiere pro, and it looks so bad, horrible ghosting and it isnt smooth.
Here it is

I just slow it down on the timeline and remove frameblending ,select and right click. NO interpreting.
30p is better for me because it no too slOoOw.

Thanks, that did it!
So happy with 60p slo motion.
I prefer it to 30p because I shoot action sports and so 60p just looks beautiful.

Yeah mine seems to be working ok. Playback is slightly laggy though, mind you I only have a 2.1g processor.
And im running cs3.2

What shutter speed would everyone recommend for shooting 60p slow motion?
The clips I shot in 1/120 came out good but there is still motion blur which isnt the look I want.
Would 1/200 be good? But still be ok for normal speed clips?

since you're shooting action sports (my guess is skateboarding or snowboarding) somewhere around 1/500th during the day time

I shoot the fastest shutter that still resolves the exposure I want. HD loves a fast shutter and it will also keep your highlights from blowing out and the sky from blooming too badly. I also highly recommend shooting with a circular polorizer as it will take off the harness and deliver some really nice colors.
