Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
Thanks for posting.
The article reminds me of a question I have on shutter shock: To what extent will the in-body image stabilization offered in some of the newer cameras help with this? Since in-body image stabilization works by moving the sensor to compensate for camera shake, unless I'm missing something, it seems it should work to reduce shutter shock. Does anyone know?
(Note that there are a number of cameras with EFCS not on the article's list, including my Canon EOS 550D / T2i, so if yours is not there, it might be worthwhile investigating further.)

Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
I have read that it should not be used when the camera is on a tripod (or otherwise fixed) as it can make things worse.Dubious wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 6:11 pmThe article reminds me of a question I have on shutter shock: To what extent will the in-body image stabilization offered in some of the newer cameras help with this?

Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
I also read this a long while ago 75' - the theory/fact is that the stabilisation effectively 'hunts for vibrations and corrections' thus actually causing them when there are non such as on a tripod-mount....75RR wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 8:26 amI have read that it should not be used when the camera is on a tripod (or otherwise fixed) as it can make things worse.Dubious wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 6:11 pmThe article reminds me of a question I have on shutter shock: To what extent will the in-body image stabilization offered in some of the newer cameras help with this?

Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
I think these stabilizers can cope with a certain range of frequencys and amplitudes. A swaying mivement on a tripod in the wind may be within their limits, but quick, fast ending movements may lead to over correction. What would I expect when used to compensate shutter shock? It might patially help at longer exposures, but will probably not correct the short knock of the moving shutter. I is also a question of dependability - do I want a setup that works well most of the time but I don't know the times when it doesn't work?
Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
I didnt check much as I disabled the stabilization but I saw on a Panasonic camera you can also configure or give a directional hint for the stabilization, eg movement is only horizontal.
Re: Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter
That function is for panning (following with your handheld camera action that takes place across your field of view.) Not designed to dampen shutter vibration in a static camera.
