Distortion caused by a rolling shutter. The two blades should form the same straight line, which is far from the case with the near blade. The exaggerated effect is due to the optical position of the near blade becoming lower in the frame concurrent to progressive frame readout.
Rolling shutter
Videos
Rolling shutter is a process of image capture in which a still picture or each frame of a video is captured not by taking a snapshot of the entire scene at a single instant in time but rather by scann
Active-pixel sensor
…Since a CMOS sensor typically captures a row at a time within approximately 1/60 or 1/50 of a second (depending on refresh rate) it may result in a rolling shutter effect, where the image is skewed (tilted to the left or right, depending on the direction of camera or subject movement). For example, when tracking a car…
