7D vs Photographer’s Flash
I’ve been shooting weddings with my 7D for a while now and I notice in the footage that when a photographer uses his or her flash on their photography camera, I get a very nasty horizontal light strobing effect in my footage. Has anyone had this problem before and any suggestions on eliminating this?
Thanks.

Beat the photographer?
Joking aside.. its not the 7D… all video cameras have issues with DSLR Flashes.
No real way other than avoidance or editing out the frames

all videocameras that use CMOS sensor that is. CCD sensor has no problem with flash nor rolling shutter

Flashes look bad on ALL video cameras
CMOS looks worse

Thanks for the feedback guys. I tried out that filter. Not bad. It works in some clips and a little weird in others.
