What is shutter speed in photography?

Shutter speed is how fast your shutter opens and closes to take a picture on your camera. Shutter speed also has a lot to do with exposure. The higher the shutter speed (1/2000 example) the less light.


Show two ways of bracketing an expsure of f 16 at 1 125 shutter speed?

1) F16@1/60; F16@1/250 2) F11@1/125; F22@1/125 assuming you wish to bracket in full stops


Is exposure composed of shutter speed and aperture in various combinations?

Yes. Sensitivity of the film is also a factor in correct exposure, as are the processing conditions, though the latter are less significant as a variable in a very tightly controlled repeatable process (as in machine processing of color films under tight certification controls). A "correct" exposure can be any equivalent combination of shutter speed and aperture settings; for example, an exposure of f/8 at 1/125 second is equivalent to f/16 at 1/60 second or f/22 at 1/30 second.


What are five exposures equivalent to F8 at 1 60 but use a faster shutter speed?

Assuming a 1 stop increase between speeds, they would be: F5.6@125; F4@250; F2.8@500; F2@1000; F1.4@2000 Since most people are not likely to possess equipment capable of 1.4 and 1/2000, I would propose using an ND4 filter and a combination of F2.8@125 instead.


What is photograph blur?

Blur in a photograph can be good or bad, depending on whether it's there on purpose or not. Usually, a photograph is blurred when either the photographer or the subject moves while the camera is still recording the picture. If the photographer moves (sometimes the camera moves slightly when you press the shutter release button), the blur that results is said to be from "camera shake." Modern cameras have some form of image stabilization to counteract camera shake and therefore reduce or eliminate blur. If the subject is moving, the only way to freeze that motion is by using a fast enough shutter speed. A shutter speed of 1/125 sec. may be enough to capture a child running around but you may need a shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. to freeze the motion of a race car. However, blur can also be good and photographers will use a shallow depth of field to introduce blur into their pictures. Why? To isolate the main subject from a distracting background. This technique is very effective when taking portraits.

What is significance of shutter?

This will depend on what you are shooting. If you are shooying water a slow shutter speed will do - if it's sports photography you will need a fast shutter speed. The shutter is a mechanical device that controls the length of time that light is allowed to act on the film. With a shutter speed of 1/125 you shoud avoid blur if the subject is not moving. Any speed under this your camera should be placed on a tripod. www.goldprints.com

How does light change when going from 60 to 125 shutter speed?

The light doesn't change. But by cutting the time in half that the shutter stays open,you cut in half the total amount of light that reaches the film.

What should be the shutter speed in summer afternoon with max sunlight?

If you don't have a meter, the old standby formula was the "Sunny 16" rule: 1/(ISO rating) at f/16. If your camera is set to ISO 125, you would use 1/125 second at f/16. Or any combination of ratings that'll get you to the same exposure value. If you have a meter, do what it says.
