Can somebody please explain this?
How is the SL flashing its tail lights like this? And can this be programmed on other cars?

Here it is again, this time while driving.... look between 07 and 09 seconds....

Even the SLR is doing it....

And CLK Black Series Safety Car.... 0:33 to 0:38 seconds

The Bugatti seem to do something similar to it..... look at 1:05 to 1:07 seconds....

E63S
I'm guessing it has something to do with the LED tailights screwing up the camera?

Yes don't be a n00b! lol LED taillights and the camera... Just like if you tape a computer monitor. You'll see lines going across. Same type of phenomenon.

Now you can just put strobes in there and be done :P

Maybe it's the Famoso effect.... 19 days and counting

But seriously, I've filmed my car and others with LED lights many times before and never had that "flash" effect before.
