Should I choose a Global Shutter or Rolling Shutter camera?
Selection Guide · Shutter Selection

Choose a Global Shutter camera when inspecting fast-moving objects or applications where motion distortion must be minimized, such as logistics sorting, high-speed manufacturing, and moving electronic components. Global Shutter captures the entire image at the same moment, helping reduce motion-related distortion.

A Rolling Shutter camera can be a suitable choice for stationary targets or applications with controlled and relatively slow movement. It can offer higher resolution and a cost-effective solution when motion distortion is not a major concern.
