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.


What is the shutter speed of the polaroid i1036?

All cameras have multiple shutter speeds and depending the mode your camera is (Manual, Auto, etc...) the camera will choose what shutter speed it thinks will be appropriate for the picture. And most cameras will also not tell you the shutter speed you used, while some will.


When could bracketing by shutter speed cause a problem?

When the higher or lower shutter speed either renders motion in an unacceptable way (depending on the subject matter) or the lower shutter speed is too slow for hand-holding the camera.


How do you get your shutter speed to slow down because when I do that the aperture won't work and it makes a dark picture and it won't let me go past a certain shutter speed limit on Nikon 42X P510?

When using a Nikon 42x P510 camera it is very easy to slow down the shutter speed. On the side of the camera there is a dial that you can access to slow or speed up the shutter speed.


What does 12.5 mean on the shutter speed?

It depends on where you are seeing this number. Most shutter speed conventions do not use o1/12.5 of a second as a shutter speed; the closest would probably be 15 meaning 1/15th of a second, which is a very long/slow shutter speed usually producing blurs if you're not using a tripod. I can't think of a camera with that as a preset shutter speed but your camera might. You may possibly be looking at an intermediate f-stop (between 11 and 16) being reported on your screen or wherever these are shown (your LCD?) when you are in shutter priority mode where you are setting a fixed shutter speed and then the camera automatically adjusts for f stop (aperture) based on WB and ISO and is sophisticated enough to report an f-stop between 11 and 16).
