  1. I was hoping someone could explain to me the relationship between shutter, shutter angle and frames per second with concern to a DSLR. My canon 5DmkII has options for 24 or 30fps, and shutter speeds going from 1/30 (for active liveview) to 1/8000, how do those shutter speeds affect the shutter angle (which is limited to 360deg)? I know that to replicate a "film look", I should set my fps to 24 and my shutter to 1/50 as that's the closest approximation to 1/48 (which is equal to a shutter angle of 180deg, 180/360 * 24 = 48). I've read that a few major tentpole films are now being shot at 60fps, what would the shutter speed/angle be for that? Is a reasonably similar look attainable with the 5DmkII? How about on the opposite spectrum, what shutter speed/angle is best for a "Phantom camera" like look with additional slowing in post? I would think I need to increase the fps to 30 and use a faster shutter speed (1/250?) to get clearer frames for the time remapping in post. I hope someone here could enlighten me, thank you.
