Excellent. In a digital camera the shutter is hard to find. In most (I believe, I have never found a definitive answer), but my understanding is that the sensor (the square in the first picture) just starts recording, and records for a period of time. It's more of an electronic, "start now", "end now", than a mechanical "open", "close".
