Shutter Angle refers to the length of time film is exposed in a motion picture camera, based on the shape of the rotary shutter. 180 degrees is considered normal (when shooting at 24 frames per second). This means the film is exposed for 180 degrees or half of the rotation of the shutter or 1/48th of a second. The primary purpose of changing your shutter speed is controlling how much motion blur is captured. The slower the shutter (the larger the shutter angle), the more motion blur. In some video cameras you can crank your shutter speed higher to create a stop-motion effect or slow your shutter to 1/30th or 1/24th and create a blurring effect for specific shots. I have also heard of people using a slower shutter because it looks more "filmic" this is a matter of taste. All video cameras (to my knowledge) that allow for manual control of the shutter speed give these controls in 1/Nths of a second (1/48th, 1/60th). If you are shooting with a conventional video camera in the United States or another NTSC country your typical shutter will be 1/60th, meaning each frame was captured over 1/60th of a second. For Europe and Asia, along with most of Africa, South America, Australia your shutter will be 1/50th. Some newer digital video cameras targeted towards digital cinema allow you to display your shutter speed in degrees, as if you were controlling shutter angle (Panasonic AG-HVX200 as an example). Also they allow you shoot at 24 frames per second and to use shutter speeds that fit closer with that frame-rate, like 1/24th, 1/48th.

How do you control over shutter angle in camera?
"Shutter Angle" refers to rotary shutters used in motion picture cameras, a lower shutter angle (in degrees) means less light is allowed to expose the film and less motion blur is captured, higher angle and more light is let and more motion blur appear on flim. 180 degrees or 1/48th of a second (at 24 fps) is considered normal. The shutter angle is controlled by the shape of the rotary shutter, some cameras allow you to change the shape of the shutter or swap out for different shape shutters. Some newer or high-end cameras allow you to change the shape of the shutter while still in-camera. Your question was filed under photography, so possibly you mean "shutter speed" if your camera allows for manual control of the shutter speed it will be in 1/Nth of a second increments. A shutter speed of 1/125th of a second was taught to me as a good shutter speed to start at for medium focal lengths for a beginning shooter - to avoid blurry pictures. Also, if you're trying to freeze water in motion, birds in flight or people in motion, a high shutter speed will work well. Above 1/500th or 1/1000th of second if your camera is capable will create the desired effect. To answer effectively we probably need to know the model of camera you are using, and the purpose, happy shooting!

Why use different shutter speeds?
Shutter speeds determine the length of time that the shutter is open, and that the film or sensor receives light. If I wanted to freeze the motion of a speeding car for example, I would need to have the shutter open for a very short period of time. If I wanted to show that the car is moving, I would leave the shutter open for a bit longer. Many different effects can be achieved by changing the shutter speed.
