high shutter speed images

That is so cool.  (W

DC,
I think that the camera is capable of 1/16000, but that does not mean that the shutter speed is fixed at that rate like it would be if selected for a still photo. the video frame rate will allow a much longer exposure, and given the high quality of the photo, I think the camera program chose a longer exposure.

Chief RID:
I love the physics but I still suck at the math. Thanks so much for sharing. I learned so much.

BowEd:
I used to take hundreds and hundreds of pictures of my coon dogs at the tree barking.Back then I used 35MM film from a Minolta camera.I used to have to use at least 400 speed film to catch them at the right moment barking with their mouth open and the foam a flying.Many times that would take 24 pictures or a whole film roll to get just a couple pictures the way I liked them.
Don't know if that's related to this and I know cameras are a lot more sophisticated now,but it's fascinating seeing on yours the difference of how much the limbs move alternately between the time it takes for the shutter to open and close.

Del the cat:
The string doesn't do that...!
It's an artefact* of either how the shutter moves or how the charge is scanned from the CCD array.
I was discussing this with my Brother and came up with a good analogy.
Imagine the CCD is a chess board with the pieces set out in the middle of a game.
To scan the image you have to write down what is in each square going along each row one at a time...
No problem...
Except, now imagine that whilst you are wringing it down, the game is till actually progressing!
So as you write down the last line, some of the pieces have been moved!
