Do you prefer 60fps or 30fps or you don't care ?

60fps / 30fps which is better ?

So I'm looking for a camera to buy for YouTube. I was wondering if you guys prefer 60fps over 30fps or vice versa or you don't care which one.

60fps example:

30fps example:
https://youtu.be/CnZoT-spMw0?t=206

As you can see, 60fps gives a more fluid and smooth video which some prefer over the more movie like 30fps video.

Note: I'm linking examples because some videos may have the option to watch something in 60fps, but the actual raw footage itself isn't 60fps and was just rendered at 60fps while editing so youtube gives it a 60fps option for the viewers. Also, in the 60fps example, the camera has a wide angled lense attached to it allowing it to capture a wider field of view which is nothing to do with my question so ignore that feature.

I prefer to watch in HD. You don't want to see boobs in lower resolution right?

Watching in HD was nothing to do with my question. I'm asking about frames per second, 60 frames per second, or 30.
I'd prefer a stable 30 FPS rather than a jittery 60 FPS let's put it that way
I dont get the difference.

If we still take boobs into consideration then 60fps. It's usually smoother but I can't really see any difference on my phone.

As for recording it will take longer to process the videos on youtube.

I guess 60...but on the other hand I like it rough...

My question wasn't a stable 30fps vs a jittering 60fps, it was 30fps vs 60fps (both stable)
I prefer 60FPS.
I literally see no difference between both of them...

Always thought 60fps meant "60 faps per second" :K:

lol.
Both 30 and 60 fps are for the American Tv system

Here you want to choose between 25/50

Tv systems were designed to work with the synch taken from the mains frequency. Which is 50 in the uk and 60 in America

Film traditionally runs at 24fps
60fps or GTFO!
ANYONE would prefer stable 60fps over 30fps.
If someone said they prefer 30 I'd be seriously concerned.

As long as its fluid i dont mind
People who go outside more than once a week aren't going to notice the difference.

Well obviously 60 FPS. Duh.
I prefer 60fps, although my download speed isn't usually high enough to get it on YouTube.
