General right shutter speed for DSLR Video

[IKONIC]

What would be the best shutter speed for a DSLR camera should be set to, provide a smoother and natural motion? Considering I am working on 25fps, 1080.

If you are in a PAL country and shooting 25p then it's 1/50.

If you're in US and shooting 24p it's 1/50 too.

in us shooting 24p it should be 1/60

what do you mean by "right shutter speed" ?

If you want to emulate film shutter, then its 180 degrees or 1/48th shutter speed. The camera only does 1/50th and 1/60th. So the closest you can get is 1/50th and if you want to avoid certain problems like flickering, then you go to 1/60th.

To avoid all hassles and have filmlike footage, in the US, just set it on 1/60th and leave it there.
