Hi there,

Apologies if this has been answered in some form before in the forums!

I'm shooting a music video with a GH2 and wanted some advice regarding shutter speeds.


  • Firstly, following the 180 degree shutter rule, if I shoot footage at 50fps with the intention of being slowed down to 25fps, what shutter speed should I shoot at? 100 or 50?


  • Secondly, if I wanted to shoot at 50fps then use the footage (but played back at normal speed) in a 25fps timeline, again, which shutter speed should I use as a general rule?

Hopefully this makes sense. In essence - I want to shoot an entire video with the GH2's 720p 50fps mode (giving me the option to slow down at various points in a 25fps timeline). If I can choose one shutter speed to keep things simple for both normal and slow speeds, that would be the ideal scenario.

Thanks for any help!
Jake
