DJI, I have uploaded all latest updates as of today and I notice I cannot select 1/50th sec shutter speed in s mode for video- it always reverts to 1/60th.  I can set any other shutter speed and in holds that setting. However I shoot everything at 1/50th on my pro cameras and I need that 1/50th setting . I am in New zealand and this is PAL land of course.  The camera is set to PAL. I am on android.

Hi Adela, yes I've done all of that but it still flicks back to 1/60th when set on S mode pal 50hz when trying to set 1/50th. As I said it will hold any other shutter speed but 1/50th. It's as if it wants to constantly reset to NTSC shutter speed.  Please get your programmers to check this for me, it definitely seems wrong. EDIT: strangely it WILL hold 1/50 when set to 1280 x 720p 25fps. But at 1280 x720 50fps and 1920x1080 50fps it just will not lock at 1/50th.  Something wrong here.

For 1280x720p 25fps, the minimum shutter speed will be 25.
For 1920x1080p 50fps, the minimum shutter speed should be 50.

I tried both in iOS and Android, they both work OK.
Could you please just check again, maybe you need to re-install your DJI GO App. When the settings come to effect, the value of Anti-Flicker will be locked as what you've just set.

yes I know but as I said at 1920 x 1080 50p it will not hold to 1/50 but just slides to 1/60th.  Please see the edit on my previous post - it does hold at 1280x720/25p  at 1/50.  I will reload the app software but as it works in one place but not the other I don't see it being the cause, but I will try your suggestion and let you know.

Hi Adela, I have just deleted and re installed the DJI go app and it still will not lock 1/50th shutter speed in s mode when set to pal 50hz 1920 x 1080/50p.  Why can this be? All the settings are correct, and as I said it will hold 1/50th when set to 1080 x720 25p. Something weird going on here. and what did you mean the anti flicker will be set? it is set at 50hz for southern hemisphere/ PAL land, it is the shutter speed that won't lock.

It works for me when I set the Anti-Flicker to Auto or 50Hz when the video standard is set as PAL.

yes so you said, but that doesn't help me! it doesn't on mine. Why is this? I haven't reloaded the firmware update again, I guess I should try that.

anyone else in PAL 50hz mode with this problem? to recap. In PAL video 1920x1080 S mode and 50hz setting I am unable to select 1/50th second shutter speed. However if I set HZ to AUTO I can. Adela tells me hers is fine. Anyone chip in and test theirs for me please?

thanks Pi-inthesky, appreciated.
Now, I have just indexed through every frame size and every speed in both pal and ntsc- and it still will not hold 1/50th in S mode 1920x1080/50p PAL 50hz. although it will in 1920x1080/25p ! I am fully up to date with software and firmware and have also reloaded the software. I think I will have to try and reload the firmware again- nothing left to try.

Well I attempted to reload the firmware from my SD card and it would,t upload to the OSMO because it was already there. So I can only assume that the firmware is OK.
DJI Adela any further suggestions? I still cannot get 1/50th in video S mode at 50hz PAL  1920x1080/50p. the slider moves to 50 then flicks back to 60.  I am at a loss on this one.

Now here's an odd thing: I switched the video exposure to "auto" then reset the HZ from 50 to auto- then went back to the shutter setting and selected video setting "s" and I was able to set  1/50th sec! WTF!!
Seems wrong to me but at least I have a way of getting to 1/50th now.
