Shutter Speed

The shutter speed controls how fast the camera will capture the picture. Iso speed determines how sensitive the camera is to light hitting it. These are related the exposure changes to work with both of these 2 factors.

The shutter speed illustrates motion by showing an image over a very short or long period of time. By controlling shutter speed we are able to catch things we wouldn't normally get. With a slow shutter speed, we can capture things like lightning, and with a slow shutter speed we can catch things like the soft flow of a waterfall.

You can pan a subject by moving your camera along with it. This will make the subject clear and the background blurry, resembling motion.

A shutter speed of 1/1600 will stop action.
