    Hi,
    Next week I’ll be shooting a film about a traffic ring with a VX100 camera. This means lots of driving cars etc., shot from a moving car (car mount and a heldhand camera inside a car). We’ll be shooting in daylight and nighttime.
    Any suggestions on what shutter speeds to use with the VX100?
    Thanks for your time

    1/60 or 1/48 unless you want something different looking. The higher the shutter speed the sharper the motion will be but the more staccato it will look.

    Thanks Noah.
    I was wondering if it’s possible to adjust shutter speeds in the first place if you’re using the Cine Gamma mode?

    Yes shutter speeds can be always be adjusted. Cine Gamma affects the tonal range of the image- has nothing to do with shutter speed.
