Yes, I think that is why the help guide pegs anti-flicker to fluorescent lights, because they flicker with the grid but LEDs do not and vary, so they get the variable shutter. It seems to me more likely that the variable shutter would work for fluorescents than that the anti-flicker would work for LEDs.


Agreed, but LEDs can also flicker at 50/60 hz which would make antiflicker work on them...

Here is Mark Galer on how he thinks about and chooses to use anti-flicker in setting up his A1:

"Anti-flicker Shoot. and Variable Shutter:

These options provide me with the ability to remove banding from my images. This banding (visible stripes running across my image) could be a result of photographing with low-frequency light sources, such as Fluorescent Lights (Anti-flicker shoot), or high-frequency LED lights (Variable Shutter). I do not leave Anti-flicker permanently switched on as this will lower the resolution of the Finder."

Yeah, I think this proves we are all in agreement as he mentions the frequency of the light source as well.

I’ve read the white balance was also improved a lot. Is it true in tne case between M4 and R5? Or, only from R4?
