Can’t get to 180 degree shutter, is it worth getting closer?

Re: Shoot at 50 fps and Don't Worry About High Shutter Speeds

Thanks for the reply Mark.

I did think of that, but as the footage will be a smaller component for a video shot mostly in 25p by a camera where I can get the footage shot at 1/50, I’d kinda dismissed it for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it’s a slow paced doco style vid, so will look more natural to me in 25p and secondly I’m often at 1/200 or 1/400 at the time of day/location I’m filming so I’d still wouldn’t be down to 1/100 anyhow to keep the 180 rule in 50p.

Thanks for your comment though, I do appreciate it.
