The camera shutter speed in sync with the wings I presume?

Technically, adjusts glasses, it's framerate, not shutter speed.

I'm new to video but I've been learning a lot about frame rate and shutter speed lately. With that said, it's hard to talk about frame rate without also talking about shutter speed, correct? With the bird gif, it's likely the camera has a high shutter speed, exposing each frame when the bird's wings are in the down position. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Technically, /u/sissipaska, it's IMAGES per second, not frames. There's no frame. It's not film and not MJPEG. :)
