I am amazed the mirror and shutter curtains work at all. If you have never seen slow motion capture of a DSLR flipping the mirror up, releasing the shutter, and then flipping the mirror back down, you have to check out this excellent Inside a Camera at 10,000fps video from the Slow Mo Guys on YouTube. When you start shooting that mirror has to flip up and when you stop it flaps back down. Same goes for shooting video using a DSLR. Not only does that mirror flap up and back down every time the shutter button is pressed, it flaps up when you press the button to enable Live View and back down when you turn it off. In fact, this can happen even if the mechanical shutter inside your camera wasn’t actuated since digital cameras have supported Live View (when you see the scene on the back LCD) and video recording for quite some time.
One shutter press makes one open and close happen.įor DSLRs this also means the mirror flaps up and down once, something that is also important to know. Kind of a funny way to word things, but that is the language used to describe the event of your pressing the shutter button on your camera that leads to the shutter inside your camera opening and closing. Let’s start by defining what we actually mean by a shutter actuation. So maybe some of you won’t find this episode very interesting, but I hope you will hear me out as to why I think shutter count matters. Now this isn’t something that will make you a better photographer. Shutter count, more specifically the shutter actuation count, is something that I think every photographer should know about.
