Still not clear why anyone would shoot non-slow motion video at 60FPS.... Let alone 4K at all or 8K. Funny stuff.

Ok, it is possible to shoot fro 4 hours continuously in HQ 4K 60 mode, under the proviso you record externally and remove the memory cards from the camera.

Rather boring Youtube video, but Gerald Undone also reacted, which is quite interesting. His limit for video with regard to approval is 3 hours continuous shooting.

There also is this interesting video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp0x9Vdckfg comparing a RED and EOS R5 8K .

And finally, here is Gordon Laing reviewing the camera for stills photography: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YT5GeNH3Ip0&feature=youtu.be

Kind regards, Wim

Thanks for the actual info, Wim. All the nonsense that gets posted and repeated is quite amazing.

 I think the reason ..... why video-graphers want to shoot video 4K video at 60 Fps as a normal replay speed cannot be answered here is because we are not in the video industry .......

..... which is why the question needs to be asked to video-graphers themselves ...... you never know perhaps they have a perfectly good reason ..... like some of them prefer it for example .. (God forbid ??)

..... this question needs to be answered elsewhere ..... so "those still not clear" can find out for themselves !!

Videographers do not want to do 60fps at normal video speed, dave. Only people who know nothing about video think that. 60fps is for slomo, 120 fps is for double the slomo.

No videographer will shoot weddings at 60 fps for normal speed playback.

The question is, why do you think or pretend that 60fps at normal playback speed is something videographers actually want/do?

30 FPS gives a smooth TV look to the video shot, 24 (25 PAL) has a cinematic feel.
Sports might be shot at 60fsp, to allow for smooth slowmotion playback.


And as Wim points out, the R5 can shoot 4K60 HQ mode (better than what the competition does due to oversampling from 8K) for a prolonged time. For videographers like you, Dave... ;-)

As Wim has pointed out, you can shoot 4K 60 FPS
