CALLING ALL Kodak Zi6 Owners! HELP! Is this dropped frames or weird shutter speed?

UPDATE: This little issue just drived me crazy. My digital cameras that shoot video do better in low light, or with dark objects, like my DSC-T700. And it's standard definition. I gave the Zi6 to my little sister. She's lovin' it. I'm getting the Sanyo VPC-WH1 underwater camcorder.
Ok, so i just got the Kodak Zi6 for my birthday yesterday. In super bright light, amazing sharp and colorful video for such a compact camera. But as soon as you get to well lit but normal or slightly dark light, you start getting stuttery video. I don't know if it's some weird shutter speed problem that you can't turn off or if it's the infamous dropped frames everyone talks about.....because when this happens, the video is super stuttery and horrible......i wish a firmwire update would just leave the video alone. Help! What do you think it is? I mean, i know that pocked cameras shouldn't be amazing in low light, but i'd accept the fact that it's grainy in low light or decent light if it didn't randomly switch to 15fps in decent lighting! So please.....HELP!

I own a Zi6 and I've found that if I use a SD card I get dropped frames, if I use a cheapo SDHC card I get dropped frames, however if I use a slightly more expensive SDHC card I get good results.

Right now I'm using a PNY SDHC Optima card, and it works for me.

No,it's not dropped frames. It's an auto slow shutter that activates incorrectly. It slows down the shutter when it sees something dark colored, not low light. The camera was basically racist . It's messed up.Thank fully the Zi8 fixes this.
