high shutter speed to help with sharp stills- smoothing out the motion footage?

[paul ross jones]

I read somewhere that a photographer was shooting motion with a higher shutter speed to help with sharp images for stills from the motion. I realize that 50th of sec really is too slow for a lot of stills, so 100th or more- 250th would be even better.

But the motion will end up being very choppy.

Is there any way of smoothing out the footage with some post effect?

Not really. You may try to use HDRX and use the faster shutter track for the stills.

Shoot in slomo at 50 fps 125/sec and speed the footage up in post.
