Question

How do high speed spy planes avoid motion blur in their photographs?

In: 51

Answer 1

As long as the spy plane is flying straight, the subject is far enough away, and there is useable light, blur from the plane’s speed doesn’t become a factor.

If you have a window seat in a flying plane, looking out of your window isn’t really blurry despite being 10s of thousands of feet in the air and going 500+ miles an hour.
