The frame rate is not quite constant, varying between 21 to 22 fps. If you don't select the "DOF" button (depth-of-field preview, in other words stop down to selected aperture) then the image will often freeze briefly as the camera attempts to correct exposure by changing the aperture on its own. If you do select DOF then this seems to fix the aperture as selected. I'm not sure but the camera may automatically stop live view mode after some period of time to prevent sensor overheating.

A few tests in Manual at a set shutter speed of 1/25 sec seemed to give a consistent output.

I'm not sure if I ever want to record more than 30 minutes in one piece, especially with the problems that this revision has. Sorry for the typo.
