Comparison of the 5D and 7D rolling shutter in 30p, 24p and 60p modes. Scan rate of the 30p and 24p modes appear to be the same as the 5D (25ms), while 60p appears to be faster (12.5ms?).

    7d had the least amount of rolling shutter artifacts in the 60p mode and had the most amount in 24p

    Thanks for the Test.
    how do you like the small HD monitor?

  • iamkalaniprince plus 2 years ago
    nice, thanks for the test. They both looked fine to my untrained jello eye..

    Yep, thx - very good to see this comparison.

    well, but no experienced cinematographer will move the camera so fast without following a subject, which case the rolling shutter effect or jello will not be in the center of interest anymore.. in my opinion both 5d and 7d jello effect is acceptable in 99% of cases
  • Luca Rubino 2 years ago
    i quote....
    Many many people are testing jello effect, doing many videos to see, in many case imperceptible jello and they miss the most important thing. enjoy their 7D (or 5DII)...

    This is something I noticed (and tested) the night I got my 7D. I guess that's one of the things you have to mitigate when doing digital.

    I guess that's like the similar shutter issues that film can have.

    Interesting test.
    There is less "rolling" on 7D but in a small HD mode... (60p). It's undertandable: less pixels to record...
  • Andrew Thomas 2 years ago
    Well they appear to have cut the read-reset time is basically in half. Running the sensor that fast is likely the reason for over heating issues in 720p.

    Hey has anyone else had a problem with a rolling orange tint on there 7d, Mine is doing in stills and video, it is very weird.

    I like all the mods your doing with your camera, I like to see the 5d Mark II pushed to its limits
  • David Berrey 2 years ago
    Great test for the cameras as well

    has anyone tried 'filming' using the 7D mounted on an airplane. I see an increase in the apparent rolling shutter effect during maximum pan speed changes. Shooting at 250th of a second on my 7D seems to minimize the effect. is this your experience?

  • Sterling Youngman 2 years ago
    Why is there more saturation (in this case BETTER) in the 7D?

    Rolling Shutter can now be removed with The Foundry's new RollingShutter Plugin. Works in AE and Nuke. $500 though... I'm sure there are some other programs that do this too, but this one ONLY removes the distorted portion of the image, not parts that aren't affected by RS.

    Rolling Shutter also occurs on the Red One...

    205.234.135.241/forum/showthread.php?t=36574

    But features and high end commercials are still shot on the RED and on Canon DSLRs... just gotta be aware of the limitations, which are far less than the image quality and budgetary gains of shooting on a 1D, 5D, or 7D...

    I love when people bring me rolling shutter footage and wonder why its so tough to get a 3d solve off of for tracking....ugh.

    I constantly have rolling shutter issues even on the slowest pans of my 7D. Its very frustrating if you are trying to do something subtle, the 7D just flicks every frame through a slow pan - with frame blending off, on, field rendering off or on and even trying to interpolate frames with optical flow retiming doesn't overcome the 'flick'. I long for the old days of a nice smooth, Pre-HD pan. Why does even interlaced HD have this problem? I also have the Canon XHA1 (3CCD) and its not as bad but that was the first stage of realising, ok we can no longer really pan at any speed. Any comments appreciated...
  • Aria Khosravi plus 1 year ago
    Not sure what you're talking about? The XH A1 doesn't utilize a rolling shutter, it has a global shutter. It's impossible for skew to occur with a global shutter. Are you maybe talking about the jitteriness and skipping of frames? Because that only will occur if you are trying to take footage from one framerate and convert (not conform) it to another. For example, you shoot 60i on an A1, deinterlace it, and then export the footage at 24p. Same with if you shot 30p on a 5D and exported at 24p. I personally have never had a problem with frame skipping on 7d or 5d, and only on XH A1 in the situation mentioned above. So it's unusual that you're having such issues.

  • Sam James plus 1 year ago
    Aria, yes re: XHA1 I was only referring to the original problems with HDV, using 50i, that doing a fast pan will give a lot more jitteriness than DV ever did. And the progressive capture on the DSLRs produces this issue even more strongly.
