I purchased a used Sony NEX-VG20 and a used Atomos Ninja Star. The software of the Star has been upgraded and I shot the attached footage at 24fps with the Star using the '60i->24p' Convert setting, Codex @ 422. There is stilted movement where the cardinal jumps from one hook to the other which is not in the camera SC card. Neither clip is color or time corrected in any way, both confirmed in DaVinci as being 24fps timeline. I am utterly baffled! It is absolutely noticeable in the Ninja Star movement at 8-12 sec. and the Sony SC card at the 22-26 sec. marks in this video.
HELP!
This makes no sense, and is entirely against the reason I purchased the Star.

Hi, I'm new here and getting back into videography after years of doing many other things. I'm hoping I found the right community for this.

I purchased a used NEX-VG20 from EBay recently ($220 + $16 shipping), and one of the reasons I acquired it was for the extra level of stabilization in the OSS lenses. I have attached 3 OSS lenses to it and in the menu system under SteadyShot, there are 3 options, 'Off', 'Standard' and 'Active'.

NONE of the 3 OSS lenses allow the 'Active' SteadyShot to turn on, so I want to know if 'Standard' does mean a lens' OSS is working or not. How would I get 'Active' to work?

Maybe the camera doesn't recognize the OSS capabilities and it's a failure/defect the seller did not notify me of? Is 'Standard' enough?

Any insight would be appreciated. I have searched all over and cannot find any reference to help (not even Yt for this specific Q).

Many Appreciations,

Paul
