Shutter Angle
Shutter angle complements the ISO setting by regulating the amount of light on the sensor.
180 degrees is the optimum shutter angle, however as lighting conditions change you may need
to adjust accordingly. For example, 360 degrees is considered 'wide open' and allows maximum
light onto the sensor. This is useful for low light conditions. If you notice lights are flickering,
172.8 degrees will minimize this effect when shooting 24p in countries with 50 hertz power supplies.
Adjust the 'shutter angle' settings using the arrow icons in the menu.
