2. WHAT IS SHUTTER SPEED?
• Shutter speed is the nominal time for which a shutter is open at a given setting
• The shorter the shutter speed
• The less light that is let into in camera and the sharper the picture is, even if
subject is moving
• The longer the shutter speed
• The more light that is let into the camera and moving subjects become
blurry
3. WATER
• To take a clear, still picture of moving water, you need a fast shutter speed such as 1/125-
1/250 of a second
• For water to look as it does through the human eye, you need a shutter speed of 1/30 of a
second
• For this picture, I used an shutter speed 1/250 of a second and f/8
