Hi everyone,

I did the update 2.00.0700 months ago now, and realised that some framerates were gone from the parameters like the 4K@30, which is now limited to 4K@25 or 4K@24.
It’s the same with every resolution below, until the 1080 which still allows 120 fps, but no 60 anymore, which is annoying when editing ´cause 50 looks weird when editing at 60 (and you can’t edit at 50)...

So I was wondering if it had been make on purpose when DJI realised the issue on the 2.00.0106 with the calera crashes and so on, or if it was another case, because I have to say that any P4 owner bought it with a recording option at 4K@30 and 1080@60, and DJI didn’t say whi they locked those modes... And this is pretty annoying because it feels like a censore on old produtcs, even if I love DJI

Well... I think I said everything, I really hope to see those recording options comong back, or at least some explanations from DJI!

Have a nice droning day everyone!

In camera settings, select NTSC instead of PAL then you will see 4k @ 30 fps and 1080P @ 60. I think all will need to be powered up and connected for setting to take affect.

But I’m in Europe, it doesn’t matter on the editing software or something? (I don’t know anything anout NTSC/PAL except that PAL is for Europe and NTSC for America)

The whole PAL or NTSC thing is obsolete. They are terms that used to be used for Standard Definition television, they no longer apply to file based high definition television systems. For some styrange reason DJI have chosen to put this choice in the menu, but it does actually work, try it. It will not affect your editing.

It will be fine, it's how the settings must have been before you upgraded, as it worked

I use 4k @ 30 fps all the time.

Unless you were producing video for TV presentation it's unlikely you would ever have to be concerned with working in PAL or NTSC specifically.

Well thx Aardvark and Geebax for your answers, it really reassured me! Then i'll put it on NTSC to get this beautiful 4K@30 and 1080@60 :3

Thanks again, and have a nice day!
