In this video we will go through three common shutter types: mechanical shutter, electronic shutter and electronic front curtain shutter. I will use Fujifilm X-H1 as an example because it has all three shutters. We will be looking at the pros and cons of each shutter and when to use each shutter in a certain situation.
Mechanical Shutter
- Shutter Shock
Electronic Shutter
- Rolling Shutter
-- Distortion
-- Banding
Electronic Front Curtain Shutter
- Less shallow depth of field
Hope you enjoy.

in a nutshell... mechanical when: - moving subject - not a lot of natural light electronic when: - still subject - plenty of natural light - u need to be silent

EFCS for long exposure and landscape

@Tom28770 2 года назад

Ming, even though your most excellent video is three years old it continues to educate and help others. My new camera has all three types of shutters with no explanation other than how to turn them on and off, so your in depth video is an outstanding teaching aid. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and pass your knowledge to the less experienced.

I think the difference between mechanical and EFC shutter can be explained by parallaxe. With mechanical shutter the first and second curtain have the same parallaxe. With EFC the first curtain has no parallaxe and the second curtain has parallaxe. The mechanical shutter sits some millimeters before the sensor, while the electronic first curtain is exactly 0mm before the sensor. So this effect should be most pronounced with fast shutter speed and bright wide angle lenses, where the light doesnt hit the sensor in a 90° angle. And there is another effect: When shutterspeed is high, the there is only a small slit where light passes to the sensor. The shutter blades are matte black and dont reflect much light. The sensor itself reflects a lot of light, so when electronic shutter or EFC is used, this can give unwanted reflections in the rear lenses.

Thank you for showing the differences between the shutter types. I have been worried about switching to electronic shutter, but now that I know the differences, I will try using it with more confidense.

@Drunken_Hamster Год назад

4:11 So glad you mentioned global shutter. The only real solution, especially for video.

@rayt2905 4 года назад

Its almost as if using EFCS is causing the aperture to ever so slightly close down...this is consistent with the dual observation of reduced exposure and increased depth of field with EFCS! A very interesting optical phenomenon...must be pursued further in my opinion. BTW, Ming was my favourite villian from Flash Gordon!

i think bokeh is the same but the contrast is higher out of depth of field which gives the impression that es has less bokeh.

@clarkeeeee 3 года назад

Electronic shutter is also much faster than mechanical shutter, at least as far as I know for cameras with "leaf" shutters, like my Fujifilm. Therefore, if you need faster consecutive shots, electronic can do this. In addition, if you are using a fast lens like the f1 50mm, without a neutral density filter of some kind to decrease exposure time, you might need to use the electronic shutter to avoid getting photos that are too bright or washed out. That's all I know that might be useful.

@divinemoment5 4 года назад

Thank you so much Ming for a very well explained instructions. I don’t know why some can give a thumbs dn for such excellent video. I hv 3 questions: 1) I saw there is still a curtain moving for EFC and you mentioned there is no vibration. In theory will there be still a vibration but is so minute that prob would not be noticeable? Does EFC register shutter count? 2) Both EFC and Electronic has certain limitation for shutter speed. And the latter will cause banding as well under certain light condition. Assuming speed is within range and under ideal light conditions, is EFC or Electronic better to bring out the sharpest and most dynamic range and with the least noise. 3) Do you have any ideal what is the bit value for each type of shutter? I read a comment in a forum that electronic shutter normally has lesser bit but he can’t confirm. I can’t find such info despite I google extensively. TQ so much.

@MingCai 4 года назад

David Low I am not sure if he refers to bit depth, I don’t think shutter type has anything to do with the bit depth, so EFC and Electronic shutter should give you the same bits

So the question I have to anybody is when shooting street photography which is normally what I do what shutter settings do you use our use electronics plus mechanical shutter

@qilight 2 года назад

Late to comment, but when using the fast lenses at f2 or wider (as in your 35mm and 90mm) at a shutter speed over 1/2000, you will begin to see a degradation of the bokeh that will get worse as you increase the shutter speed when using the EFCS. Fuji and Canon do recommend to switch to MS in this situation.

What do you think of using the EF + M + ES setting on the camera? Would this give the best of all worlds? Otherwise the Camera will not go over 1/8000 when shooting in bright light.

@stevesvids 5 лет назад

Subscribed 👍 Just wanted to say.... something I have found out after much head scratching. I put the supplied xt3 flash on my camera... and found that it simply wouldn't operate or turn on in the menus. I thought it must be broken... I then wondered perhaps if it might be related to shutter. I changed my shutter from ES to EF and hey presto... TTL flash became available. I presume this was camera telling me that no way can it take a flash photo while in ES mode due to the read write speeds of the pixels during the flash sequence. Quite a puzzler as theres no clues given in camera when the flash doesnt engage. All the best... regards.... Steve

@Martin-nu6ym 5 лет назад

I lost some beautiful shots of birds in action because I forgot to get the Fuji camera out of EFCS. :( Gave me smearing in random areas of the photos. Mainly use mechanical because I like being ready to use a flash and to never again have the smearing effect. Will use ES for focus stacking though and event photography if I don't have to worry about bending and/or banding.

@bioliv1 5 лет назад

So it's not recommended to use EFCS with flash?

@Martin-nu6ym 5 лет назад

@@bioliv1 It starts to become a gamble if banding could occur if used with HSS. From what I can tell, using the flash sync speed or slower should not be an issue.
