I didn't know that Apple had marketed their iDevices as professional video cameras.
I mean an iPhone is a cell phone right?

that we are back full circle to the early time of cinematography where hand-crank cameras were the norms… at least at that time you could make a conscious decision to go faster or slower, whereas with the iPad or other devices, this control is given to the software/hardware to keep up with the technology limitation ;-)

S This is true about the frame rate dropping back from 30 to 24 or 25. We were having this discussion today at our office where a client shooting a documentary had several people shooting an event at night and had several people shooting on iphones and Galaxy phones. Man, we love these jobs where we get a bunch of mixed frame rates to deal with.
I did a
Google search on this but not much surfaced. It seems to me that ipads and iPhones drop back to 24 fps when lighting becomes an issue and they need a longer exposure per frame. I'm not 100% sure about this, but that's what I'm seeing so far on footage.

I don't have an iPad, but my iPod Touch
shoots 30 fps nominally, but will drop to 24, or 25 at times,
without regard to the settings.

As I understand it iDevices don't guarantee any particular
frame rate... it depends upon conditions, and up to some maximum
frame rate depending upon the device and generation.
Depending upon how Premiere is handling them you might want
to run them through AE first to standardize the clip frame rate
to your project frame rate.

Two
clips are coming in at 24fps and two are coming in
30fps. Mediainfo shows them at 24.06 and 28.86.
What
is the default frame rate of the ipad? The only thing I
could find online is that you can change it up to 30,
but I don't know if this is default. They don't even
know how to change the settings.
