I'm asking all HVX200 users and Varicam users... Do you guys have a specific setting in which to get smooth slow-motion. We are shooting on the Panasonic Varicam where talent is jumping on a trampoline in front of a green screen, and we want the motion to be smooth. No jittery or blurriness. Let me know... Thanks!
 
720pn24 overcranked to 60fps should give smooth slomo. Use 1/60 shutter for just a bit of motion blur, or higher for no motion blur. Remember you must use the native setting, at least on the HVX. Plenty of light helps.
 
lots of light.. yes :D

and if i want to make the slowmo looking good without picture blending, i render the 60fps out as picture sequence and then import it on 25/24 fps
and THEN you can slow it even more down with frame blending or twixtor.
