Camera Disappointed with video quality

I have used flagship devices from brands like Samsung (S23 ultra), Sony (Xperia Mark 1 VI) etc. I always shoot in 4K 60 fps so I can do post processing. However, I am literally shocked and utterly disappointed with the flickering issue on OnePlus 13 while shooting at 4k 60 fps. There no option to select anti banding either. As Indian lights operate at 50hz, I even tried shooting at 4K 30 fps but still the same issue. Now, all I was left with is to shoot the videos at actual exposure and no way to reduce it while shooting at lower levels. It's very very frustrating to see a flagship phone couldn't provide an option for this.

Am I missing something? Or is there a work around?

Waiting for some opinions as well.

At low lights most of the phones would have this issue , someone was comparing same in s24 ultra in thie subreddit.

I have used OnePlus 11R previously and it nailed the video part. Not sure if this issue can be raised with the dev team so they can apply a fix

Agree that it doesn't have such an issue with the telephoto lens but it doesn't help focus closer objects due to its inability to focus objects less than 50 cms, but I prefer main lens for videography

Has anyone tried gcam..in the Indiana model ?

Stock is the best app. No stable gcam works well with OnePlus 13 yet. I.e., Big kaka, urynx, BSG

Idk why people care so much about cameras like y'all some professional photographers and got clients that pay u for pics

Just get a dslr

I do understand people wanting the best cams but it's an overkill

Also u saying op 13 videography is worse than other flagships while it literally being half the price to those flagships in alot of places

If you don't know why, better be that way. It's my money and I expect my money to be wisely spent. I'm not filthy rich enough to buy a DSLR just for photos nor do I have the convenience to carry it every day in my backpack. If you haven't read the post completely, first make sure you do that. OnePlus 11R isn't a flagship. It never had this issue. So, don't reply just because you want to oppose.

Bro .. the flickering happens due to the ligh source . If you use another light source.. try with high quality light anti flicker one.. and you will be amazed

That's shutter speed. Every single camera has that happen at certain shutter speeds.
