No, it's not just you. There's a technical name for this effect, something like "strobing." Perhaps a filmmaker on the list can help? I saw a brief discussion of it in some magazine (forgotten which) earlier this year & if i remember right it's a result of panning too fast for certain lighting conditions, usually artificial or lower light.
