How were the people who finally conquered Constantinople different from the Byzantine people?
The people who conquered Constantinople in 1453 were primarily the Ottoman Turks, led by Sultan Mehmed II, and they were distinct from the Byzantine people in several ways. The Ottomans were Muslim, while the Byzantines were predominantly Christian, specifically Greek Orthodox. Culturally, the Ottomans were influenced by a blend of Turkic, Persian, and Arab traditions, whereas the Byzantines were heirs to Roman and Hellenistic legacies. Additionally, the Ottomans had a more centralized and militaristic state structure, which contrasted with the declining Byzantine Empire's political fragmentation and internal strife.

The Byzantine Empire was a highly successful state which endured (not counting the centuries of Roman existence before the founding of Constantinople) for 1,123 years. In the end, the Empire was brought down by a combination of the Fourth Crusade (which sacked Constantinople, divided the Empire, and destroyed its structural integrity as a nation), a series of civil wars in the 14th century, and the rise of the powerful Ottoman Turks, who finally captured Constantinople in 1453.
What are some of the consequences of the move of the Byzantine capital to Constantinople?
There was no Byzantine state before the move of the capital to Constantinople (Byzantium = Constantinople), unless you mean 1261 when the city was recovered from its western conquerors.

The new location proved more defensible as Rome fell to invading armies in 410 and 455. While the Western Empire finally ended in 476, the Eastern held out (apart from the interlude of Latin rule from 1204) until 1453 when Constantinople finally fell to the Ottoman Turks.
