Claim:
1. A method, comprising: detecting that at least two frames of a digital video sequence are associated with a first shutter speed that is greater than a frame rate of the digital video sequence; determining that an image sensor is receiving light at a first intensity level through an electronically actuated filter having a first transparency level in response to receiving a first voltage level; adjusting, by a controller, the first transparency level of the electronically actuated filter to a second transparency level such that the image sensor is not overexposed by light passing through the electronically actuated filter by applying a second voltage level to the electronically actuated filter to attenuate the amount of light reaching the image sensor; and adjusting the first shutter speed associated with the digital video sequence to a second shutter speed that is slower than the first shutter speed based on the second transparency level of the electronically actuated filter and the frame rate of the digital video sequence.
