FLASH: OT: photographing TV set for web/Flash use

[Brack, Jeremy]

I am about to photograph graphics on a TV set, and I need to know what

shutter speed would be best for ASA 100 35mm film.

I know that TV's display at 30 frames per second, and there are 2 fields per

frame.  Each field shows odd or even scan lines on the TV set, so you get 60

fields per second..  So I would assume that a shutter speed of 60 would

either show a sharp image or 1/2 of the scan lines.

And if I set the shutter speed faster, I assume that I would not be able to

see a full image on the screen.


Is 30 the best shutter speed?  Please respond if you can help!


thanks


Jeremy

That's still a live MacOS issue, and it effects several apps. I don't

recall what causes it to come up on some machines and how to make it revert

back to normal behavior, but I do know that this Macromedia Flash Technote

summarizes the info, and can be found with keywords "mac AND drag":


"Library items can't be dragged to the stage on Mac"

http://www.macromedia.com/go/14442


I'd recommend keeping up on the Mac resource sites, though, because

MacFixIt and MacInTouch uncovered this issue first, and if there's updated

info on the best way to address it then the specialists would have the

first word.
