shutter speed in burst shooting
Apr 10, 2015 10:00:56 #
If a camera shoots 10 frames per second, each shot each ,in effect, starts at 1/10 sec. shutter speed. How then will this effect shutter speeds the the various other settings. Wouldn't each setting be increased by that 1/10 increment. Just curious. I know that the 1/10 increment would have no real effect on the exposure, but in may at really slow shutter speeds.

Shutter speed will remain the same. The frames per second shot depends on shutter speed and how much processing the camera has to do. Processing includes autofocus, auto-exposure, size of picture file size, camera buffer size and read/write speed, external card and its read/write speed, etc. In other words, the camera's first priority is to take a picture with the settings you want. The frames/second is last in its priorities.

If you set a shutter speed that is longer than 1/10th then that should override. The fps is a maximum.

It will shoot at 10fps IF you have the shutter speed set to at least 1/10. if you have the shutter set for 1/5, you won't get your 10 fps.
Is this what you are asking?

The burst rate does not effect shutter speed - two different things, however the shutter speed will effect burst rate since a slower shutter remains open longer and will cause the burst rate to slow down.
For example, if you set your shutter for 1/2000 and shoot a burst of 10 shots, the shutter still remains open for 1/2000 for each shot. Slowing down the shutter speed of course causes the burst rate to slow down.

That makes sense- thanks.

Generally the max burst rate is related to shutter speed of max flash sync speed and above. Below the max flash sync speed in general you don't get the max burst speed.

Actually you are looking at things backwards. SS will take priority over fps.
Using your example a SS of 1/5 of a second would slow fps to 5 fps.

Hey Jim please don't use SS... I keep thinking of SharpShooter ;)

No no no, wrong SS. Then again, SharpShooter could be taking those shots, LOL!
Sorry but SS has stood for shutter speed as long as I can remember.

Correct...and since you be using burst in well lit situations shutter speed is generally not a issue with the frames per second in burst

Nikon says, on page 83 of their manual, that in order for me to shoot Continuous High Speed with my Nikon D610, i.e. 6 fps, that, among other settings, I have to have the shutter set at 1/200 or faster. Could be different for different models of the various makes of cameras.

Now take the jump to video where frame rate does take precedence to shutter speed. There's a good video on this page with some good examples of how shutter speed works when you're shooting at 30 frames per second: http://vimeo.com/videoschool/lesson/56/frame-rate-vs-shutter-speed-setting-the-record-straight

Thanks, sloscheider. Very interesting video.
