Bad motion blur after rendering

I have some 60p and 24p footage on my Vegas Pro 15 timeline. Very typical with wedding projects I produce. I use two to three cameras with one (on gimbal) set to 60p I have the option of slowing down 40% for beautiful slow-motion. I am getting terrible motion blur when the subject or camera moves on this footage that I'm leaving at 100%. It looks like I shot it at 1/30 sec shutter speed or something but of course it was 1/125 (180 degree setting of my GH5s). This only happens after rendering. It looks great in the timeline. If I look at the footage frame-by-frame, again the footage looks fine. Maybe a tiny bit of blur if I was swinging the camera around. I don't think I want to change the project settings to 60p because much of the wedding footage is shot at 24p.

I'm rendering to 24p as usual. Here are the exact render settings:

Here is some raw footage that shows the blur:

Any ideas what is going on? Thanks!

Have you tried Disable Resample for the 60p media?

I think I tried disabling resample for the project earlier with no success but when I tried it for just the media like you suggested.. Bingo. Thanks!

If I hadn't messed this project up beyond repair and gone to drink coffee, I never would have seen the post. Glad your problem is solved.

I've been puzzling over this quote from Vimeo for a while, now.

Which part(s)?

"motion blur is directly determined by shutter speed"

Seems correct to me. Of course, the higher the cameras frame rate, the higher the slowest possible speed will be.
