CAMERA: Video Quality - Galaxy Note5 General

Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Note5 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.

My recording format of choice is 1080p 60fps, and for some reason, the Note5 struggles with it. Like it'll drop frames randomly while shooting, almost every time I use this format. But 1080p 30fps is fine and so is 4k 30fps. There is a video stabilization option (which strangely isn't turned on by default) that automagically smooths out even the most insanely choppy video (I tried running with the phone), but it only works in 1080p 30fps.

Overall videos work great and come out super clear, but what I have noticed is that when you record in slow motion, the video quality drops significantly.

VIdeo is one of the best. It beats my LG G4 in this comparison test I did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SZ7hu_7txg

Good

Have any of you tried high-bitrate recording on this device yet? There's an app that allows you to go up to 200Mbps.

without the external sd feature on this phone like in previous version of note series. i have no confidence using video shooting on this phone beside setting in 1080 uhd and video recording consume a lot of megabytes in the internal memory. significantly slows down the phone.

I don't shoot a lot of video, oh wait that's a lie. UMM I did shoot a lot of video when I first bough my phone. Just lately I have not. I shot a lot of selfie vids and normal vids using messenger, standard text message app and snap chat. The quality looked excellent according to my girlfriend. The vids looked fantastic, good quality on her iphone 6s. I know I should have posted this in the picture quality thread, but it's nice to take photo's while your taking a video. That's pretty much it, the battery did drain a lot from using my phone heavily on recording videos and selfie videos for my girlfriend. But she never complained about the quality, like the picture quality, she was jealous that her iphone 6s quality wasn't as good

Please , do a mini test of the microphone in a loud environment, I´m interesed to Switch to this phone, thanks.
Is it right when you record 4k 60fps it very laggy or stuttery video.....thats because theres isnt any stabiliozer.
I am really thinking buy Oneplus 6 ....but if the 4k 60fps videos are so bad i am off.
Earlier i had a Huawei p10 its was also stuttering video

It uses OIS for 4k60fps according to the AMA
I got oneplus 6 today and recorded my son on 4k 60fps. It is really a great camera. No stutering. Video turned out great
Here's an OIS and EIS explanation on the OP6.....
https://youtu.be/bdcld2ux-tA
So you are absolutely not expering any stutering with 4K 60fps like Video below

Its stutering because of OIS. Very weird

I made video 4k 60 fps siting down. My kid moved around and video was fine. No stutering at all.
I 'll make some more testing tomorrow ?
I think this should answer all questions. Only recorded in 1080p 60fps mode, but I was mainly looking for the audio quality. And from my perspective, that time has come where OnePlus 6 can record concerts, may not be perfect, but I can live with it ??? My life is now complete.

Guys I am still waiting my order to be delivered
Anyway I heard that you can only capture max 5min video on 4k 60fps is that correct?

I'm gonna have to ask again about the loud environments video recording. The 5t will either distort or lower the volume to the point of being unable to hear anything and then gets loud again. My Moto's never had an issue like that, and nor do, dare I even say, most iPhones.
Really worried about it because I want to upgrade but not if this issue isn't nixed. Ideally, a festival, concert, or nightclub would be great to try this in.
My OnePlus 6 is on the way
See if the camera is better then OnePlus 5?
I tried to capture "Night time" timelapse vs normal video on OP6, but was not happy with the results.
Normal Video is almost dark at times.
Here they are :
The sound during video recording at concerts is superbad. If this is a factor, don't get it.

My big complaint is the low fps when capturing indoors. Video fps balanced between 40 and 11!!!
Yestarday i took video from my son's scool event. Indoor event with plenty of light. Kids dancing on a dance floor. 1080p and 30fps settings.
The result?
- Amazing sound!!! Everything hearing so clear that you cannot believe how on earth did a mobile manage to do this!!! Clear output for every sound source!
- Amazing picture quality!!! Obvious without doubt result!
- Annoyng "cracks" during playback. Fps goes from 40 to ...11!!!!...and playback became too unsmooth!
Maybe HTC trying to keep ISO in low level using fps drop as a solution. I dont know. But this makes playback unwatchable!
I wiil try to capture with 60fps next time. Lets' hope that fps will not drop below 30.
P.S i previously wrote this small text in wrong thread. I copied in here in order to continue the discussion.
Yeah I found too that 30fps video is quite choppy. Switching to 60fps seems to have solved the issue.
Yes. 60fps option solves the "problem".
The same on 4K video recording. 30fps makes video unsmooth. If you choose 60fps, everything is ok.
I hope pie solve this issue.

Video is smooth and clear especially with Gcam.
60 fps video is very laggy. Slowmo in my case is insanely laggy. 5-6 second long freezes. Hopefully Android 10 and RealmeUI will fix it. Otherwise I'll sell this phone
At 30fps 720p and 1080p, look good, but the EIS can't be disabled. Sometimes kindda bit annoying especially when doing panning. 4K the EIS is disabled by default, but I never use it, overkill for my phone screen and consume space to much.
At 60fps, up until RMX1971EX_11_A.16 firmware, it's kindda laggy. Is not pure or locked at 60fps. Feel's like variable frame rate. Image you playing a PC Video Game in 60 Hz monitor, and you turn on V-Sync, but your GPU couldn't handle the frame rate, and give you frame dip or stuttering. That what I saw with 60 fps video recoding in Realme 5 Pro.
Last, for slowmotion, 120fps and 240fps look smooth if you have enough light source. 960fps is not smooth, but I think due it's hardware limitation.
Latest firmware RMX1971_11_C.01 fix the 60fps issue. The video looks smooth. But I facing issue the EIS seem like disabled on 30fps, but it can be fix by clear camera cache and data.
does it support 4k hevc 10 bit videos ? has anyone tested those jelly fish videos in it

60 fps is BETTER but not smooth. Still the are fps drops. Redmi 5 pro for instance (sd636) is very smooth

960fps slomo is a sort of a gimmick mode. It's software-based, meaning it uses 240fps video then slows it down 4x and uses frame interpolation to compensate the missing frames to make it look smoother. However, it results in blurred outlines of moving objects, artifacts, and messy details. Sure it's fun and you can get great shots in perfect conditions(solid color backgrounds), but it looks bad most of the time. 240fps and 120fps are fine, 4k is great, and 1080p60 is awesome, that's my preferred shooting mode. A higher bitrate would be welcome and also the zooming is choppy, i wish it was smooth. I hope 4k60 will be available in future updates but i don't know if the chipset and camera hardware is capable. 9/10 Video quality.

The stock camera only takes 720p 30FPS video. How is this even a thing in 2020?
With Gcam, I was able to go up to 4K 30 FPS, but since I do not know how 4K should look, I do not know whether it was actual 4K.
60FPS crashed.
Edit: It was a mistake. See my next post. Gcam 4K video is terrible tho. I will rather prefer the 720p video.
I was wrong. This camera does have 1080p60 and 4K30. But for some reason last night it was locked to 720p30. No idea why.
Well, same "issue" that many phones seems to have.
Video quality is okay, but the sound of the videos is crappy in many situations.
Don't understand why they doesn't implent a better audio codec...
My experience:
I have Redmi Note 9S. Video stabilization works only in video modes: 720p 30fps, 1080p 30 FPS. When I want to record 1080p 60 FPS, or 4k 30 FPS, video is not stabilized.
