Among the lens shutter and focal plane shutter, which shutter can achieve a higher shutter speed?

Shutter speeds with focal plane shutter can be much higher for the following reasons.

1. Different shutter structures: the inter-lens shutter is composed of two shutters and requires a set of mirrors between the lens and the shutter, so it is more complicated to operate, while the focal plane shutter has a relatively simple structure. Just set a shutter blade on the bottom of the camera, which is more convenient to operate.

2. Limited shutter speed: Due to its complex structure, the shutter speed of the inter-lens shutter is limited. Generally, it can only reach a maximum of about 1/4000 seconds, while the shutter speed of the focal plane shutter can reach higher .

3. Different scopes of application: The inter-lens shutter is suitable for low-speed shooting, such as still life photography, landscape photography, etc. The focal plane shutter is suitable for shooting fast movements, such as sports events, animal photography, etc.
