AF101 50Hz playback issue solved

[RieniO]

Some time ago me and others reported 50Hz 25fps playback issues, in various threads. I haven't been on this forum for a while so I don't know how these discussions developed but I would like to report that I've been shooting a lot of 50Hz 25fps lately and haven't seen the stuttery playback issues anymore. I'm very happy with the image quality of the AF101 at the moment.

Ummm so what is the solution?

In my case: get enough sleep and stop drinking coffee. During my first AF101 shoot I was very tired and drank too much coffee and my hands were shaking like crazy still I was so stupid to do some hand held shots, this in combination with very short shutter time looks really stuttery. I don't know if shutter time can be checked in footage but it looks like 1/500s or so and I don't know how I managed to set it like that. I still drink a lot of coffee but I use a tripod now and turn shutter off and footage looks much better
But in short; I was and still am really dumb. That's why it's good to be here and learn from the pros.
