SQUARE SHUTTER
The MOTION MOUNT Square shutter is a global shutter that provides consistent, full illumination for every
frame. The MOTION MOUNT fundamentally changes the way your camera exposes for motion, reducing skew
and smear artifacts.
The MOTION MOUNT Square shutter assists in the following ways:
Reduces striping or tearing artifacts from uncontrolled strobes and flashes.
Reduces skew, also known as the “jello” effect, so that fast-moving subjects are not angled or sheared.
Ensures images are not blurred or wobbled due to rapid camera movements.
SQUARE SHUTTER FRAME RATES
The Square shutter operates at frame rates up to 109.98 FPS; however, the Square shutter is most effective at
reducing rolling shutter artifacts at lower frame rates.
SQUARE SHUTTER ANGLE
The Square shutter angle ranges from 62.1° to 180°. The available shutter angle range at any given time
depends on the selected frame rate.
For the most natural and realistic motion in Square shutter mode, start at a shutter angle of 180°. Adjust the
shutter angle from there as needed.
