Frame shutter mode, also known as progressive shutter mode is the name that Sony came up with after it developed a progressive-scan CCD for video cameras. This mode allows full-frame acquisition with conventional interlaced field output. In Frame Shutter Mode, a camera acquires 30 (NTSC) or 25 (PAL) independent images per second. These images are output as 60 (NTSC) or 50 (PAL) interlaced fields. The result is a progressive-scan signal, which is also compatible with traditional interlaced scanning systems.

Shut shutter of the mineral man
Who takes the fatherless dark to bed,
The acid sky to the brain-pan;
And calls the crows to peck his head.”
