How to change framerate in backyard EOS?

[mazlucas12a13@hotmail.com]

Hi everybody,

 

I have a 7D MKII, capable to film in 1920x1080 at 50 fps.

But I only can film at 25fps with backyard eos and I can't see any FPS setting in the software to change it.

Someone can help me with that? I precisly buy this programme for filming at 50 fps at zoom 5x or 10x.

I precise that the 1080p at 50fps setting are correctly set in the camera itself.

 

Thank you in advance for your helps.

 

Regards

It is not possible to get more that 20 to 25fps when viewing live on pc, it is just not possible to download that many frames on the usb 2 wire.

 

This is hardware limitation; not software.

Hi and thank you for your fast answer^^

 

The 7DMKII is on usb 3.0... I plugged it directaly on the back of the motherboard on my pc in a usb 3.0 port with a good usb 3.0 cable...

It still does not matter unfortunately.  Liveview is not capable of producing more that 20 to 25 fps over the wire.

 

And you do not want to use HD resolution anyway; here is why.

ok ths.

 

It is a shame that it can't take 50fps, it would be a huge avantage for Jupiter and is moons...

 

I have a last question if you don't mind: is 10x zoom usefull or is it better to use 5x zoom anyway and crop after in post?

 

Ths again for your time.

If you care about quality forget 10x and use 5x and only 5x and never look back.

 

5x zoom is the *only* mode where you get 1:1 pixel resolution and this is the absolute best quality you will ever get out of a dslr.
