b) As for freezing movement with shutter speed the fastest movement of the wings is going to be somewhere between their upper and lower limits of movement. At the extremities of movement they are basically stopped as they change direction.
No 1 I would suggest was taken at a lower shutter speed, but I would certainly not place a bet on that.
As for this series they sure are getting better !
