XF300 shutter question

An apology for what? Anyone with any experience knows that when shooting fast action sports you WILL see motion blur even at 1/60th or 1/50th of a second. Why do you think (still) sports photographers shoot action sports at 1/1000 or more? I'm not advocating that kind of fast shutter speed for video (because some motion blur is needed) but it is foolish to pretend there isn't motion blur at all at 1/60th of 1/50th.

So what more is there to be said when somebody isn't willing or isn't allowed to post an example to back up their claims? I have better things to do with my time than bicker back and forth. Other people are certainly free to post whatever what they want to, but there is no apology necessary. You have made the mistake of assuming that just because somone doesn't want to bother continuing the conversation that it must be an admission that something was posted that was not correct. That's your mistake. I stand by every word I have written on this thread -- 100%.
