Tony-
Thanks... I really do not have the experience to agree or disagree with changing the shutter. I've spent a lot of time reading posts in this XL2 forum and have come the conclusion that there are many ways to accomplish the same things. I'll continue to experiment with all these suggestions. Thanks again! Tim |

Try to experiment to reach your own goals...even though there may be many different roads leading to the same goal posts. |

There is nothing to disagree about really. The shutter to control light should only be used when you are stuck without another option. You should carry enough ND, polarizers, etc. to not HAVE to use the shutter. Like I said, it is an irreversible effect you are applying to your footage and can dramatically effect the perception of the viewer. For sports, high action, music videos, etc. it can be a very nice effect but for some things it will absolutely kill the feel of natural motion.

No problem, Ash, we'll just have to agree to differ. - "...Sports, high action, music videos, etc.. and when you are stuck without another option..." - is enough reason to use the shutter to help maintain correct exposure.
I do not like using more than the inbuilt ND filters + Polarizer at the same time, and stay clear of stacking filters. It doesn't really matter how you maintain the basic exposure or control the light hitting the image sensor, as long as the end result is the type of footage that you wanted to achieve. |

Not really on or off topic, but... I discovered quite by accident, when you are shooting Zebras, having the Zebra function on really confuses things. I wasn't sure if they were blowing out or even in focus.

Tony my advice is more directed toward people with less knowledge than you... I just wanted to make sure it was understood that the shutter is not a light adjustment and will create an effect. If you are after the effect, it is a great one that cannot be recreated in post effectively.
