+# Motion Blur
+
+Fast-moving elements get a shutter smear along their path. It is opt-in: nothing blurs until the composition root has `data-motion-blur="on"`.
+
+## Turn it on
+
+- `data-motion-blur` — `on` enables blur; `off` opts out, on the root or on any subtree
+- `data-motion-blur-shutter` — shutter angle in degrees, 0-720 (default: 240)
+- `data-motion-blur-samples` — samples per frame, 2-64 (default: at least 32, sized to the smear)
+- `data-motion-blur-events` — `on` runs timeline callbacks while blur looks for movers; needed when motion is set from a `render(t)` callback
+- `data-motion-blur-tier` — `auto` (default), `capture` or `filter`
+
+The same attributes drive the browser editor preview and `hyperframes render`.
+
+## Two ways it is drawn
+
+- `capture` redraws each mover along its path, so turns and zooms smear truthfully. Needs a browser with HTML in Canvas.
+- `filter` puts an SVG filter on each mover. Works in any Chrome and costs little; turns and zooms are only softened.
+
+`auto` uses `filter` when every mover only translates and `capture` when anything turns or scales.
+
+## Check and render
+
+- `npx hyperframes check` reports `motion_blur_filter_fallback`, `motion_blur_no_movers` and `motion_blur_unverified`
+- `hyperframes render --page-motion-blur off` renders without the composition's blur
+- Blur is off for HDR, distributed, and sub-frame-blur renders
