4K 15 FPS

24 isn't choppy, its the most normal looking to the eye. 60fps viewed on a screen with a high enough refresh rate looks more fluid like a home video... almost looks worse. That's subjective though I guess.

Hollywood film makers are very good at concealing the limitations of 24 fps. I still think it is nonsesense to think of 24fps as any more "normal looking to the eye" than what poor AM radio is to the ear: it may be what we are used to, but it is a far cry from reality.

4K at 15 fps is pointless.

Played back at normal speed for normal scenes, I tend to agree.

Yea that's why they want to record/show films in 48fps like the hobbit.

What can you watch 4K video on? Seriously!!!! I'm not about to shell out $10000 for a tv to go with a $400 camera...

That said, I have a GoPro3 black on order and can't wait to play with it... but I just can't see myself going past 2K video.... my first planned filming when it comes will be to put it on a stunt kite and capture motion-sickness inspiring video

4K on a 1080p display still looks better than 1080p on a 1080p display, it's not like you have to have a 4K monitor to see the difference.

As for the GoPro, I'm pretty sure they just threw it in there to make the specs look better. But I'll take 2.7K all day.
