Shutter Speed, Frame Rate and the 180° Rule
The key to smooth video is balancing shutter speed and frame rate. Follow the 180° rule: set shutter speed to double your frame rate (e.g., 1/50s at 24 fps) for natural motion blur. Break this rule for creative effects like sharp, choppy, or dramatic motion. Use ND filters to maintain exposure with wide apertures.
