Don't listen to him when he says to never use a really fast shutter. If you want to get that Saving Private Ryan motion effect then a fast shudder is needed. Actually, a fast shudder looks great with just about every action scene. Makes things look more intense.

@KinsTV Your video capture mode is probably in Auto mode. Go to your Menu and change it to Manual.

Also, when motion tracking, you should probably bump up the shutter speed, just sayin

Hey, at 24p i cannot set shutter speed to 1/50, but 1/48. I guess that's how they made it though since 48 is the double of 24, so will this be ok? :)

Thanks so much! Now i can check shutter speed off of my list!! Since i shoot at 24fps i will keep it on 5o and worry about iso and aperture.

Does this work for the t1i?

[KinsTV]

NEED HELP!! ANYBODY!! i dont know how to SET the shutter speed when in video mode... i can do it in the picture parts of the camera but not in the movie mode

@charvelgtrs How do I set a high shutter speed in movie mode on the t2i? And you're right. For every fight scene I shoot its - 1/150 and up.

@charvelgtrs I think you misunderstood. He's referring to people using fast shutter speeds for general movie shots. But you are right, it really depends on the scene and what style you are going for. IMO, people overuse that cranked shutter speed style that it becomes distracting when utilized in a dialogue scenes where simple composition would suffice.

That tripod and head cost two times the T2i
