  Canon Flicker when shooting TV screens

  Posted by John Sherman on November 18, 2011 at 2:32 pm

  How can you eliminate flicker on tv and computer monitors when shooting with a Canon 60d at 24p?

  Please help.

  This is actually quite hard to eliminate as you are seeing a beating effect between the different rates of the monitor and camera.
  A TV will also likely be different to a computer monitor.

  The only way to do this is to use a shutter that matches the screen rate.

  Usually you would set the shutter to be twice the frame rate (50 @ 24) but when shooting TVs etc experiement with the shutter to try to eliminate the flicker.
