High speed frame rate

[Ed Watkins]

O.k can some one clarify this for me?

Will:
5 mins of camera record time @ 100fps timebase 59.94fps have the same number of frames as 5 mins of record time @100fps timebase 24fps?

Would the two captured clips be equal in length, or would the 24fps be longer?

Answer

Yes that's the same number of recorded frames in both cases. i.e. 5 x 60 x 100 = 30,000

On playback the 23.98 fps timebase recorded clip would last 2 1/2 times longer than the 59.94 fps timebase recorded clip.

Thanks!
I thought as much, but just wanted to check.
