david 929 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Has anyone compared the quality of video shot by the Pro1 at 4K 30 fps vs 1080p 30 fps, when displayed on a screen that can actually show 4K resolution? A friend of mine says that he seems to see lower quality on his Galaxy S9 when shooting at 4K/30 than he does with 1080p/30. And as for 1080p/60, I've read reports of Pixel 2 users who say that mode produces lower quality for some reason. Here is one example of someone who showed lower quality in 1080p/60 than 1080p/30: https://forums.androidcentral.com/google-pixel-2-pixel-2-xl/854224-pixel-2-xl-video-quality-1080p-60fps-shocking.html If other phones have these issues (especially the Pixel 2, sharing the same camera as the Pro1), I'm curious if some discrepancies might be possible on the Pro1 too.

EskeRahn 5,460 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I got a 4K 43" display, so should be ideal to test that, would have to make some suitable video first though... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EskeRahn 5,460 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 4K looks clearly better, here 2 x 2s trimmed videos https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share/H9CYmkONzvgdQuwxuve3S8jNJpMb7Y81zwICvt274zx e.g. very visible at the finer twigs of the tree top left... (Also Included originals, plus half an hour later 120 HFR and 120 HSR variants of FHD) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I could load 2 windows side by side, but pressing start on each at the same time would be hard. If you *really* wanted to makes something special, you could put those into one split screen video with the resolution and fps stamped on each side. 😉 Did you try 1080p/60? Oh wait. I just saw the end part. 120 HFR and 120 HSR? So it can do 120 fps on 1080p, not just 60? Edited January 24, 2020 by david Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And using a different app might not give fair results. ...And too lazy to mess with the split thing, but if you open a video in VLC with repeat set, and then Alt Tab to the folder, and open the next, it will play ABABAB.... so compares of the three FHD are fairly easy even on a FHD display. 😇 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
