Canon HV20 "jello effect"

This video clearly shows Canon's HV20 "jello effect" caused by vibration. Some claim it is caused by the rolling shutter while others claim it is caused by the optical image stabilization.

How you get that jello effect?

Problems with HV20?

[vqflores]

Use a Canon HV20 camera and add vibration. That's all it takes. Something in the camera design does the jello effect. If it was slower and smoother it would be cool, but it isn't.

erm, you're an idiot! He wants to demonstrate the "jello" effect!

[Tim Harding]

It's about the cmos sensor.

[feralucce]

Right... take your ccd camera with a rolling shutter... same effects. This has nothing to do with sensor

[feralucce]

No. It's not. With the right frquency, a DSLR lens with no image stabilization will get the same effect. We've even seen it on flip cams. It is purely rolling shutter

It's not just a problem with the HV-20... it will be seen on ANY camera that has a rolling shutter... having modified an hv-20 to completely disable the stabilization, and it still does it... but with the proper frquencies, you will see this on all dslrs. Having worked with the red scarlet, we saw some jello lens while shooting process.

HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU PUT HV20 VIDEOS ON THE COMPUTER?!?!

i seems like in the water....

Yeah, this video was taken a long while ago. We've come to see with the influx of budget hd camcorders and cellphone video recording, that this is definitely 'image stabilization' at work. Interesting video example, its too bad this 'jello effect' is so common nowadays

This particular jello effect looks like heat distortion.
