God how I hate these 60fps videos. It makes everything look so artificially smooth, like in fast forward mode, or like a cheap soap opera. :) I believe there is a reason why filmmakers use 24fps standard. Now they even put this "intelligent frame creation" in TVs, bleh.
The 24 fps (and 29.976, etc) standard came to be due to audio tracks being recorded on the side of perforated filmstrip. The early days of film saw very random framerates as everyone was using whatever they wanted. Obviously this caused a problem with audio sync and speed so standards had to be put in place. American 30fps NTSC was also B/W TV while 29.976 (today's '30fps') came to be when color TV signals came out (needed to separate the frequencies for broadcast and that 1 increment was good enough).
It is by
no means a standard of '
what looks right' so much as a necessity for audio and transmission back in the day. In today's digital world we can record and display whatever we want without sync problems and I would personally GLADLY watch 100-144fps+ videos if those were available (running a high refresh rate panel myself).
Remember - your eyes see a constant stream of light and in terms of frames - you could notice a single black frame at ~250fps or more (fighter pilots can
identify an aircraft at 1/220th of a second without much problem as test showed!). You can't call a high framerate artificial as the higher - the more lifelike it will be.
One thing to consider - we've each had DECADES of 24-30fps content and we are used to it. Now 60 for some reason looks weird because of that to most people. The fact is - when I moved to a 105Hz display refresh rate (overclocked my laptop from 60Hz to 105Hz) - everything appeared so smooth! And after a while it became a normal thing. So normal that I can't do 60Hz - not enough frames! Talk about getting used to, eh..? :D
There's a LOT to consider in terms of framerates and motion blur and image persistence and how it all relates with resolution and blah blah blah - my post would go on forever. But I'm happy to discuss if anyone's interested :)
