why doesn't the Ex1r allow for 1/50 shutter?
I looked into menus, and there is no way to set it up
I can only shoot 1/60 and other settings but no 1/50 as I shoot In PAL land at 1080 50i I was looking to use 1/50 any help appreciated |

Just turn the shutter OFF (the switch under the lens).

not sure I understand your reply
I don't need to turn the shutter off, I need to set it to 1/50 |

What Piotr is saying, is that turnng off the shutter in PAL mode is the exact same thing as 1/50th.
So, if you need 1/50, just turn the shutter off.

Thank Doug. Is that so If I shoot 50i or 25p?
I was asking as the z1 let you dial 1/50 and 1/60 |

If you shoot 50i, the shutter speed with the switch off is 1/50 and all the selectable speeds are higher. Set to 25p, the shutter speed with the switch off is 1/25 and switched on, you will find that 1/50 is one of the available speeds.

Pal at 60i?
I just had a Euro client send me spec on what camera settings he wants for a PAL shoot on Monday/Tuesday. Could this be right? 1080i/60i/16:9/PAL
I thought it had to be 50i, 1/50th or 25p to be PAL. Please verify if you know the answer. |

When it comes to HD there is no 'PAL' or 'NTSC' as such. Just frame sizes and frame/field rates.
There are some 60Hz PAL systems, but mostly PAL is 50Hz. You should confirm what country your client is expecting the material to work in then have a look on the internet for that country's TV standard.

thank you
I appreciate the quick response. I will double-check with the producer--just didn't want to ask a stupid question before I checked it out elsewhere. In the past, all the Royal Dutch Shell videos have been shot in 25p or 50i---so the specs for this job didn't make sense to me this time. thanks again.
