Shutter speed, also known as “exposure time”, stands for the length of time a camera shutter is open to expose light into the camera sensor. If the shutter speed is fast, it can help to freeze action completely, as seen in the above photo of the dolphin. If the shutter speed is slow, it can create an effect called “motion blur”, where moving objects appear blurred along the direction of the motion. This effect is used quite a bit in advertisements of cars and motorbikes, where a sense of speed and motion is communicated to the viewer by intentionally blurring the moving wheels.
Fast shutter speed
Fast shutter speed is used to freeze motion.The faster the shutter speed the the shorter the time the image sensor is exposed to light.Example of where fast shutter speed is useful:
Slow shutter speed
Fast shutter speed is used to freeze motion whereas slow shutter speed is used to achieve a motion blur for moving objects
Photo Sequence
Continuous shooting refers to how fast the camera can take images one after another in rapid succession as rated in fps (frames per second). Fast continuous shooting is great for catching action shots. Sometimes the action happens so quickly its hard catch the perfect shot, fast continuous shooting allows you to capture many closely spaced photographs so that you can pick the one which best captures the action. Many cameras allow you to shoot in continuous mode and choose the first or last n photos so that you can basically hold the trigger down until you see what you want and then let go.

Panning
Panning is used to get the object you want in focus and blurring the background to show movement.This is done by having the shutter speed of about 1/30 and moving the camera slightly and following the object.
