Interesting Look at Rolling shutter artifacts with rotating objects

For this reason, I would much rather have a camera that has global shutter and 12 stops than one with rolling shutter and 13 or more.

I have a day job in programming, so I have the luxury to be so picky. For those of you who must buy a camera now, I think it's fine if you buy one with rolling shutter.

However, I wish people bugged manufacturers for what I guess I would call motion purity as much as they ask for resolution or latitude. To me, 2K is my baseline for resolution, about 12 stops my baseline for latitude, and global shutter my baseline for motion purity. You can up resolution or latitude but not at the expense of global shutter.
 
This is neat, but personally I've found at "real speeds" people are more likely to accept this as just "something that happens with fast moving stuff." Far less intrusive to see a wacky propeller blade or spoked wheel for two seconds than, say, moire on someone's suit jacket. Personally I wouldn't put a lot of time trying to get rid of these kinds of rolling shutter issues if everything else was looking good.
