Bruce A. Johnson

A 1981 graduate of the Boston University College of Communication, Bruce A. Johnson got his first job in broadcast television at WFTV, an ABC affiliate in Orlando, FL. While there, he rose through the ranks from teleprompter operator to videographer, editor, producer and director of many different types of programming. It was in the early 1980's that he bought his first computer - a Timex/Sinclair 1000 - a device he hated so much, he promptly exchanged it for an Atari 400. But the bug had bitten hard.

In 1987, Johnson joined Wisconsin Public Television in Madison as a videographer/editor, and still works there to the present day. His responsibilities have grown, however, and now include research and presentations on the issues surrounding the digital television transition, new consumer technology and the use of public television spectrum in homeland security. He freelances through his company Painted Post MultiMedia, and has written extensively for magazines including DV and Studio Monthly.

Rolling Shutter:  The Shutter Of The DAMNED!

These shots might make you look at your DSLR a little differently…

I don’t (yet) own a DSLR or a CMOS-based video camera, so to me rolling shutter controversy has been an abstraction at best.  I was aware that many people (Anthony Burokas, particularly) often pointed out the curved moving lines CMOS generates in things like drumsticks and the like. 

But it wasn’t until I saw this post on DVXUser  by Barry Green that I had a real appreciation of how badly things can go when you combine CMOS and motion.  Remind me not to take any prop-plane flights on CMOS Airlines!
