1. A method for fluttering a shutter according to a determined shutter fluttering sequence, said method comprising:

  • determining a modulation transfer function based on a particular shutter fluttering pattern and at least two properties associated with a target subject, said particular shutter fluttering pattern associated with a flutter shutter camera;

    determining a minimum allowable open shutter duration for said flutter shutter camera;

    measuring a plurality of attributes associated with said modulation transfer function, said measured attributes being combined to produce a fitness score;

    identifying a fluttering pattern that maximizes said fitness score;

    selecting a shutter fluttering sequence with respect to said shutter flutter and said target subject according to said fluttering pattern that maximizes said fitness score; and

    communicating said shutter fluttering sequence to said flutter shutter camera in order to flutter said shutter of said flutter shutter camera according to said shutter fluttering sequence.
