C200: Published rolling shutter value.

[Stills2HDConvert]

I've been digging around trying to find published numbers on the rolling shutter on the C200.

I can't find squat.

A lot of reviews say it's negligible but when I watch the Zacuto C200 EVA1 shootout they both look pretty bad in the rolling shutter department.

In this Canon promo video (I did a search on C200 and airplane) about half way through there is a quick shot of a propeller that is bending a lot.

I'm going to hang on to my BMPC for now since it has a global shutter, but I'm curious what the value is for a C200.

According to that, it is:

C200 (4k=1080p) --- 16.1 ms (4k: 15.5-16.2-16.9, 1080p: 15.5-16.0-16.6)

Not the greatest, but not terrible either.

Figured the C200 would be similar to the C300 II (6-8.33ms reported): http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?349982-C300-MkII-and-Rolling-Shutter-question

I think it's always a case-by-case basis.

If true, the original C300 supposedly is 16ms. Also, the resolution may or may not affect the results for a particular system.

I don't know if any of the numbers from any unofficial source(s) are accurate, but just saying.

Compared to lots of cameras I shoot, I consider my C200 RS to be pretty acceptable. That's what kept me from the EOS R, the TERRIBLE 5D MKII level RS.
I've been shooting an action sports documentary for the past year and a half with the C200 and have not experienced anything even noticeable.
No plane props or helicopter blades though!
