Is it better to prevent flashover at 50hz or 60hz?

50 hertz

1, 50Hz wide application range: 50Hz power frequency is suitable for most countries in Europe and Asia, matching the local power supply frequency. The camera's anti-flicker 50Hz can better eliminate the flicker or ripple of the picture and ensure the stability of the picture. In contrast, 60Hz is mainly used in the United States and some Asian countries. If a camera is used in this area to prevent 60Hz flicker, the picture will flicker or ripple, and the power frequency does not match.

2. Practical experience support: According to the experience and test of professional photographers, the anti-flicker effect of 50Hz camera is better. Under the power frequency of 50Hz, the exposure time and frame rate of the camera can be better synchronized with the power frequency, and the flicker problem can be reduced. In contrast, if you use a 60Hz camera to prevent flicker, there will be a mismatch with the power frequency, resulting in a decline in image quality.
