I've had the C100 for 2 weeks now and I noticed that almost all the pan shots are are little jerky and laggy. It looked like something with a wrong frame rate. I couldn't figure it out. I thought maybe it's my CS5, but I uploaded the footage, raw, straight from the card to youtube. Still laggy.

Shots without panning are less laggy, but laggy none the less.

Playing from the camera seems fine.

shooting on 60i

Any ideas?

What media player are you using to preview the footage? I just downloaded the Youtube conversion of the raw MTS file on Media Player Classic and it looked fine.

I believe the issue is not the footage but the editor or computer.

Jack,

I'm using Adobe Premiere and Windows Media Player on PC.

I just find it strange that the raw MTS file uploaded on youtube, then played from my smart TV yielded the same laggy result.

Are you on Mac?

Downloaded VLC and the footage now plays better!
