EOS R6 Mark II - Stripes with vertical shooting

Hi at all,

I ran into an unsusal problem while shooting some vertical images. It seems like the shutter moves to slow (mechanical shutter mode) and leaves a regular trace accross the images. On the right side, two of these lines are visible, on the left side there is one more at the bottom. In the middle (for me) it is not percievable.

Interestingly, they don't appear in all images, only where I cover the ground, which is lit by some tungsten lamps.

So, might the sensor already expose before the shutter fully opened? Anybody had this problem before or knows a solution?

Greetings Schmarian,

It is odd that there are those lines that are appearing in your images. The issue may be related to banding caused by the type of lights that are being used in the shooting environment. The tungsten lights used may be running at a frequency that the camera will see and capture.

We can try enabling the Anti-Flicker Shooting function within the camera's menu:

Then to adjust the High-Frequency Anti-Flicker Shooting setting on the camera:

Hey Natalya,

thank you for this tip. Indeed, I apply the Anti-Flickering when filming screens or projections. With the tungsten lamps I will give it a try next time. I guess the probability is still low for this, because there are several lights and a can't see any flickering on screen.
