The Foundry releases shutter roll plugin

I am constantly following the DSLR situation, because I think we are on the verge of having something that is actually usable (again, not in the professional sense, but it would be good enough for stock footage, getting shots for a reel, or potentially a purely spec commercial).

Ideally what is needed from Nikon is a camera that shoots 720p24 without shutter roll, and with a decent codec (ideally 100mbit/s+, but the best we can probably hope for is a 'high' setting of 25mbit/s, which is still better than HDV).

The Foundry just released a shutter roll plugin for AE today
, which will fix the roll issue at the price of a lot of processing power. My guess is that it may also compromise the originally intended framing.
