FDR-AX53 XAVC-S 4K - "jerkyness"

Hi,

 

I have just purchased a FDR-AX53 from Jessops Cardiff on the 1st April 2016. 

 

I am having trouble with JerkyNess when using recording movies XAVC-S 4K at both 60 and 100 mb/s. The quality is stunning but the jerkyness makes the picture annoying to watch.

 

All HD recordings are perfect and faultless. I have put 5 different tests here on YouTube and I'd like your thoughts on why it is "jerky". It's as though there is some sort of video processing being applied but I cannot see where to switch it of it there is. I really don't want to have take the camera back for a refund so hope this is resolvable.

Thanks

RAW footage set with 4K 3840x2160 at 60Mb/s. The verdicts out as it appears to be very jerky when in "4K Mode". It's jerky through the view finder as well and not sure if this is the 25p rather than 50p. It's almost as though it's got a "film mode" enabled. I'm hoping it's just my setup. Update: ...

Oh i don't have the problem now was it only when you had it on a tripod.

Was it fixed for you too after the update?

I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the tripod to be honest.

 

Hope this helps!
