Low Shutter Red Komodo

[Moritz Matlik]

Hey everyone!

I'm shooting with the Red Komodo and I want to achieve a low shutter effect in camera. So I changed the Shutter Degree to Shutter Angle but I can't go lower with my shutter then 1/30s while shooting 30fps.
Is this the physical limit of the Komodo or do I have to change settings to get access to the lower shutter speeds. Because I can see the lower shutter speeds but they are greyed out and I can't use them.

Hopefully you can help me

Best!

1/30 of a second is as low as it goes at your 30fps base, thats the length of 1 frame and you can’t have an exposure interval longer than a frame. Angle and degree don’t make a difference because 30fps base at 1/30 sec is identical to 360° angle- just a different way of reading it. If you want a smeary, long exposure - 1frame @ 360° (359°?) is the longest you can keep your shutter open on a red.
