I stand corrected :-)

I thought it was meant for tack-sharp hand-held shots...

Erm, I meant fast exposure times, as opposed to fps.

Correct, not for toy cameras like DSLRs. The flash for some CHDK P&S
cameras can fire with pulse durations as short as 1/224,000 of a second
with perfect full-frame shutter sync at 1/40,000 of a second, as already
measured and confirmed. We're not talking about your crippling slow and
lame DSLR flash units and agonizingly slow image distorting focal-plane
shutters designed last century.

Got any more of your ignorance and stupidity that you wish to advertise to
the whole world?

LOL!

Not deformed. See a stationary one

Not even minorly. Tips are exctly like you see them, bent, that is
their design. See the stationary photo again.
And motion blurr is not the point, the point is that you lied about
DSLR shutters distorting pictures.
