25 timebase sync-sound

[Jim Grieco]

I need to shoot 25 timebase with my EPIC for PAL and I am going to shoot 25fps for sync-sound. The audio will be embedded directly on the files as I shoot. Should I be aware of any sync-sound issues when shooting 25fps/25 timebase or will I be good to go?

Good to go. It's how everyone else in the world shoots outside USA and Japan.

Just finished two projects at 25. Good to go dw.

 

[Dave Blackham]

Good to go. We have been filming here for 32 years personally at 25fps and it much easier than at 23.98 or whatever.

Thank you, Kirk!

Thxs, Dave...I figured as much...just wanted to confirm. Best - JG

no problem at all (tested in many PAL countries around the world)...
just the same rule as always; yellow framerate-indicator means varispeed or different framerate and timebase -> which means; no audio.
but 25 for both gives you audio just as expected - fine and sync (like any other framerate that matches with the timebase).

if you use any external audio equipment with their own sync generator or source make sure to double-ckeck the settings there -> but for direct-to-camera sound via the camera inputs there should be no problem at all.
