youtube is a valuable place because of people like you. Very informative and exactly what I needed to know! thanks! p.s. I have one question: why doesn't mechanical shutter also have the rolling shutter effect? since as you said the curtain moves from top to bottom the sensor should read the information from top to bottom as well, the same as what electronic shutter does.

@RMSPtv

Thank you! That's a great question. You are correct! You actually can get very minor rolling shutter with very fast mechanical shutter speeds because of the two curtains moving together and exposing the different parts of the sensor at different times. The thing is, our cameras are so fast, we don't see or notice it in most use cases, where electronic rolling shutter is much more obvious. Here is a great forum post on Stack Exchange about it. The second answer addresses your question perfectly: electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/376797/why-is-there-no-rolling-shutter-when-using-a-mechanical-shutter#:~:text=Now%20when%20a%20mechanical%20shutter,appearing%20in%20the%20final%20image.

Whichever one won't cost me a fortune to repair when one or the other breaks

@rephaelreyes8552

Ай бұрын

Electronic has no mechanical point of failure. But then again (because these camera companies are greedy), there will be a 2-30 cent electronic piece that could easily break after 5-7 years. It's unbelievable how a premium product just breaks like that. I've replaced a clicker on a mouse- the superior, gold plated clicker costs me roughly $1. The inferior clicker soldered by the manufacturer? That one costs 67 cents. These companies- I'm looking at you Sony, they think we're clowns and ignorant enough to buy $1-3 replacement parts for $40. Absolutely unbelievable.

Great explanation of shutter behavior. I wondered if you had a recommendation, mechanical or electronic, when shooting timelapse? It seems to me that electronic would be preferred to save wear and tear on the mechanical shutter mechanism. Do you know of any disadvantage? Thanks.

That is a tethering cable and is used to send images from the camera to the computer when shooting in the studio. Yep, we have videos on it, just search for "tethering" on our Channel Page.

Re banding I set my shutter speed to 1/60 for indoor and my ISO to auto. I have yet to find an issue with banding at this shutter speed. (I think the shutter just has to be slower than the flicker rate) This is on my Electronic shutter only Sigma FPL. Great video BTW. But I am curious, the say you describe the Mechanical shutter. It too exposes a thin horizontal strip of the sensor from top to bottom. Why would this not also have the diagonal line issue with side to side motion?

Thanks for great video explaining many of my questions, except one; On a mirrorless camera, if I use mechanical shutter, how is it possible viewfinder (a display actually) continues to show what sensor sees.

I believe that the camera is interpolating the missing frames that happen when the shutter curtains close. Honestly, I'm not 100% sure though. That's a really great question.

*Can you help me, my current need is to buy a microless that supports electronic shutter to silent, but I need fast shutter speed with HSS Flash, I don't know if electronic shutter with HSS Flash has a "banding" error with speed. around 1/2000 to 1/1800? have a good day bro*

With the solar eclipse coming, I'm wondering if using my XT-3's electronic shutter might allow me to reduce the tiny bit of vibration the mechanical (curtains) shutter might create at longer exposures. With an effective 1200mm lens on the camera, some of the exposures (on a good tripod with a star tracker employed) might be in the 1/30th to even longer range. Does the ES giver you a little more stability in terms of just the vibration once the wired release is depressed? Thanks much

Thanks for the explanations! But I'm so confused about "rolling shutter". Would you not have this same issue with a mechanical shutter? As the curtains move and let light in, the subject can move as well. This should cause light poles to bend, bird wingtips to look weird, etc.. ??

It’s not that big difference but mechanical shutter needs more energy to run the curtains. On a mirrorless, the sensor is always on to record and send the image signal to the display/viewfinder. Taking picture means the sensor also sends the image signal to the camera memory. The camera has to do it in both shutter modes anyway but mechanical shutter needs energy to “run”. But again, it’s not that much affects to battery life. Usually reading the sensor and sending it to the viewfinder is the most power consumption thing. Depending on the settings, taking photos using viewfinder drains more battery than using display.

So the wear and tear gets mentioned a lot but surely the mechanical shutter should outlive the camera? I’d hate to think they are designed to fail under normal use.

Shutters are one of the first things to wear out on most cameras - BUT - most people want a new camera well before they are at the point of the shutter wearing out.

What is the lifespan of an electronic shutter

@RMSPtv

4 ай бұрын

Usually longer than anyone would want to own a single camera.

I don't understand the comparison... Even with mechanical shutter, sensor readout is still using rolling shutter mechanism, that is reading line by line.

@RMSPtv

7 ай бұрын

Yes, the readout is still line by line, but the entire sensor is exposed to light at one time (when the shutter is open), then the data is read out line by line. With electronic, the shutter is exposed and read out line by line causing the rolling shutter issues.

Why doesn’t a mechanical shutter get rolling shutter when it is practically doing the same thing as the electronic one

Because a mechanical shutter captures every pixel simultaneously instead of row by row.

If Electronic shutters are so fast, why do they still have the rolling shutter effect?

I guess you're screwed with rolling shutters if you purchased a Canon R8.

@RMSPtv

9 ай бұрын

Yep! But they are getting a lot better and my hunch is that electronic shutters are the future!

6:22 electronic, not mechanical. Rolling shutter: there is basically no difference as mechanical also will read out the same way just slower, just like you demonstrated int he beginning, shutters also move line by line, hence there should not be a difference.

@ACitizenOfOurWorld

2 ай бұрын

Look at it again. At slow shutter speeds, the first curtain drops way ahead of the second, exposing the entire sensor at once. It's only a super fast shutter speeds that the two curtains form a slit and basically read line by line like the electronic does all the time. However, you'd have to really pan fast to get a bent shape with mechanical.

@un-review

2 ай бұрын

@ACitizenOfOurWorld you are right, but at slow shutter speed, readout speed becomes nearly irrelevant due to the physics of the process. Any speed there will return same quality image, because both ways it will be milliseconds.
