The rolling shutter effect is an unwanted effect inherent in the components called CMOS sensors,
which are commonly used in digital single-lens reflex cameras (DSLRs), pocket cams, mobile
telephones and video cameras.
Rolling shutter effect tends to be undetectable or hardly noticeable in footage before stabilization.
But after a video is successfully stabilized in post-production, the rolling shutter effect remains
and may slightly or severely impair the quality of the footage.
So Mercalli is also equipped to combat this unwanted effect when needed – because there is no
benefit in stabilization if the result is spoilt by other undesirable effects.
