HPX250: Internal Variable Framerates vs. Conforming

[NorBro]

I've been using the HPX250 for slow-motion (shooting at 60fps meant to use in a 720/24p timeline).

Question: If I shoot in regular 720/60p and later conform my footage to 24p in Cinema Tools, will it look exactly the same as if I did it internally in the camera? For some reason, I think having slow motion processed inside the camera produces higher quality.

Thank you.

Barry, where you at?! haha

Yes, 720/60p "conformed" to 24p slow-mo in post, will look identical to in-camera 720/24pN shot at 60fps. The Cinema Tools "conform" process, as far as I understand it, merely tells the computer to change the playback rate of the footage.

Thank you!

Just wondering...if I am shooting 60p, the 180 shutter would be 1/120....so should I use a 1/240 for slow motion?

No, the 180 shutter already takes into account the different frame rates and adjusts itself automatically.
