if you do you will lose 1 stop of ambient light, along rising the contrast with deeper shadows...

'Conventional Wisdom would tell you that you should normally always aim for a shutter speed of approximately twice the frame rate for natural looking motion.

This “rule” is often referred to as the “180 degree shutter rule” and has it’s roots in film cameras where the physical shape of the shutter is a half circle. The action of exposing the frame and then feeding the film through the gate would equate to a full revolution of the shutter; so half a revolution is spent exposing the film (open shutter) and the other half feeding the film, hence the term “180 degree” shutter.'
