Pro1 video camera discussion

[lizardgai4 22]

Hello,

I was looking at capabilities of the F(x)tec Pro1's video camera.  Here are my thoughts:

At first I thought there was no way to record video in any framerate but 29.97 (which TVs use all the time), since Open Camera couldn't get me genuine 60fps.  And installing another app to look at a default camera's video's info shown me an oddball 29.46fps

I later discovered a setting in Snapdragon camera that allows you to record in 120fps, and either keep it that way natively or slow it down to quarter speed.

But why, if we can record 30fps and 120fps, can't we record 60fps?  Also, is there a way to switch between the two rear cameras (12mp and 5mp) for pics and video?

This reply is to bump the discussion.  After almost one and a half years, I still cannot get 60fps video out of my phone.  What's worse is that if I go 120fps, Google Photos falsely assumes it is slow motion and gives me no option to play back at normal speed.  That problem has been documented since 2018, and Google has not even tried to fix it.
