•
Adjust the trade-off between noise and motion blur. Go to Video > Image > Exposure and move the Blur-noise trade-off
slider toward Low noise.
•
Set the exposure mode to automatic.
Note
A high max shutter value can result in motion blur.
•
To slow down the shutter speed, set max shutter to the highest possible value.
Note
When you reduce the max gain, the image can become darker.
•
Set the max gain to a lower value.

If possible, move the slider under Aperture toward Open.

Move the Blur-noise trade-off slider toward Low motion blur.
Note
When you increase the gain, image noise also increases.
•
Set Max shutter to a shorter time, and Max gain to a higher value.

If you still have problems with motion blur:
