Is there any way to turn it off? I'm playing on the 360 and ever since I downloaded the 1.5 patch i've had more and more first person kill camera shots. It's getting excessive, especially now that my game has frozen 2 times during the cinematic. My game hasn't frozen at all since the first time I played it back in November. Thoughts?

Edit: It's only happened with my bow.

In all probability a more general freeze issue than that it can just be attributed to the bows.. (pointless addition btw.. my opinion)
How large is your savefile, are there certain areas where your game is surely to freeze.. do you have lag...?

I don't think it's a pointless addition. It's clearly stated in the 1.5 patch: "New cinematic kill cameras for projectile weapons and spells". I'm not using spells, so I thought it should be known I was just using a bow.

There is no lag and it happened during a Companions quest. I don't think it's a general freeze issue, because it has only happened with the kill shots.

A bit of a boo boo from my side .. I didn't mean that statement to be aimed at your post... I think that the addition of those killcams in 1.5 is pointless.. So... Sorry if I made you think it was aimed at you..

What Quest did it happen on.. might be an area which is known for freezing..

Ah, I see. No worries.

The freeze occured during the Glory of the Dead quest. I know they Companion quest line is buggy (or was), but I hadn't had any problems until the 1.5 patch. The kill camera is a nice effect for maybe....one time. Now that it happens nearly everytime I make a kill it's just an annoyance.

MMmh did some digging, can't find a solution..
You could try an earlier save, or if your bow has enchantments, use one without..
I reckon you already tried clearing the cache etc..?
