Most digital cameras, DSLR 35mm or Medium format offer both a ES (electronic shutter) and Mechanical shutter (focal plane).
You will get rolling shutter effect with both stills and video with a ES, mainly with objects that are moving across the field of view. With stills, easy to see the effect of ES on props, (on a drone or plane), cars, sometimes people. Wind driven things like leaves most often will not be effected.
The ES scans the entire sensor and then the readout is read to the card. So as the read is being done, larger moving objects will be given the rolling shutter effect.
Different cameras have different readout speeds, and some do excellent work. You also currently can't sync a flash with a global shutter, instead you need a Leaf shutter (MF) up to 1/2000 of a sec or standard focal plane shutter 1/250.
For the P4, Pro having the Focal place shutter is an advantage and I use it exclusively on stills.
As previously mentioned currently all video cameras use Electronic shutters, currently the only way you can 30fps or 60fps etc for video work.
In theory a Global shutter will eliminate the issues of readout and movement but it's a long way off for consumer level cameras. Several camera companies have them in the works currently.
So back to the OP, yes the Mechanical/focal plane shutter will eliminate the effect of rolling shutter on stills, only.
