Ever wondered why fast-moving objects sometimes appear distorted in your footage? Or why flickering screens and rolling shutter artifacts ruin your shots?
In this video, I break down rolling shutter vs. global shutter, explaining how each works and how they impact your footage. You’ll learn:
✅ How rolling shutter scans the sensor and why it causes distortion
✅ The real fix for rolling shutter issues (hint: it’s NOT frame rate)
✅ How global shutter eliminates motion distortion for clean, sharp images
✅ Why global shutter isn’t in every camera and whether it’s worth the investment
From helicopter blades to flickering lights, rolling shutter artifacts can be frustrating. But understanding how shutter speed interacts with motion will help you control and avoid these issues for a more cinematic look.
