I am trying to set my video settings on my PP4 + but for some reason the option of 60FPS is not available. Does anyone know why?
I don’t have 60FPS option [emoji848]

I seem to recall that it needs to be NTSC format not PAL - I'm not near mine so I can't check.

I think some people need the 60 fps, depending on the types of flying they do. In my case, I'm going to start experimenting with the 60 fps because I do a lot of turning and yawing around our sites as I film workers and equipment. I'm finding the 30 fps rate to be a bit choppy during those maneuvers, and I think the 60 fps may smooth that out. I'll just have to deal with huge files in those cases.
I don’t care about the size of the files. I like the best video quality option available. I’ve been reading about the flicker in the PP4 videos though. I heard if you notch down the sharpness, contrast and saturation it fixes it. I don’t know. I’ll find out I guess.
Possibly a setting like others have already mentioned. Check your micro SD card and make sure its UHS-1 quality.
I asked someone once about the SD cards and if it can make a difference in quality from one SD card to the next and everyone said it doesn’t matter.

A lot of people assume that a bigger number must be better.
It's not always the case.
Here's some relevant information for you: Video frame rates: 24FPS vs. 30FPS vs. 60FPS explained
Wow that was very helpful info. Makes sense. I thought the video I posted to FB looked like crap for some reason. I guess it turns out because they are chopping my 60 FPS into 30 and it looks like crap. It’s like randomly erasing half the brush strokes of a Rembrandt and expecting it to still look good. Lol.
