Fast panning or moving objects are problematic when shooting with CMOS sensor. As I know frame rate doesn't help. When shooting stills you are using mechanical shutter so there is no rolling shutter artifacts. Thanks for engaging in the conversation. P! @John True.

Good article on wiki, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter I must admit I was thoroughly distracted by Maja to really look for the shutter movement effects. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the time you have to be worried about this stuff is, when in video mode, when you pan quickly, or shoot when you or the subject are moving FAST... such as video at a sporting event like basketball or auto racing. Can you compensate for this by changing your frame rate? Also, with the Canon 5D Mark II, when shooting stills, are you using a rolling shutter or a global shutter? Or is that a silly question?

I also would have liked to see the test repeated with the cameras in reversed positions to see if the results still held up.

But I wouldn't agree on a importance of field of view (FOV) because I measured the angle of the skew which would probably be the same regardless the different FOV. But then again I am no physicist and I could be wrong. But yes, the test would be more accurate with camera directly one over another or even traveling object causing the artifacts as Daniel noted in the comment. Thanks for the thoughts!

Another issue I see is that on the crop cameras, the FOV is not the same: 50mm gives us the FOV of about 80mm, and I'm not sure, but that could affect the perceived angle of the rolling shutter. What could be done is to let the cams stay on the tripod, and have some object quickly traveling along the frame. Could be a motorbike with some vertical flagpole attached, or anything else.

With your setup, the cameras on the outside will move faster than the ones closer to the middle (the pivot point) when you pan quickly. The only true way you could accurately do this test is to stack them all on top of each other. I don’t think this test is accurate.
