There are two reasons I would use a fast shutter speed.
The first is to stop action.
The other is if I want to use a wide aperture to reduce depth of field. In the really old days we had a table called Exposure Value. It went from EV 1 to, I think, EV 22. Let's say my meter says I need to use EV 8 to properly expose a picture, and EV 8 could be...
1 second at f/32
1/2 second at f/22
1/4 second at f/16
1/8 second at f/11
1/16 second at f/8
1/32 second at f/5.6
and so on and so forth.
Now I have a decision to make: do I want to stop action, which would call for a fast shutter, or to get lots of the picture from foreground to background in sharp focus? If I want stopped action, I use a wide aperture and fast shutter; for depth of field I do the opposite.
Generally a higher shutter speed such as 1/500 is required to capture the image of a fast moving object without a blur. Some cameras have an automatic setting for this.
fast.....slow would allow more movement to be captured.
To capture clear and sharp images of fast-moving subjects using a fast shutter speed, adjust your camera settings to increase the shutter speed, use a higher ISO to compensate for the faster shutter speed, and ensure proper focus and tracking of the subject. Additionally, consider using burst mode to capture multiple shots in quick succession.
For capturing fast-moving subjects on a Nikon D90, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second or faster.
To capture sharp and detailed photos using a fast shutter speed, adjust your camera settings to increase the shutter speed, use a tripod to minimize camera shake, and ensure proper focus on your subject. Additionally, consider using a higher ISO setting to compensate for the faster shutter speed in low light conditions.
You neeed to use a fast shutter speed to freeze any sort of action when you are photographing sports, action or even fast moving wildlife or birds. Usually well over 1/500th of a second. You may need to change your ISO setting to 400 to 800 if you want to use high shutter speeds, on not-so-bright days, that are overcast, cloudy or without sunlight.
For capturing fast-moving subjects with a Nikon D3100, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second or faster to freeze the motion and avoid blur.
For capturing fast-moving subjects with a Nikon D7000, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second or faster to freeze the motion and avoid blur.
For capturing fast-moving subjects with a Nikon D90, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second or faster to freeze the motion and avoid blur.
For capturing fast-moving subjects on a Canon Rebel T7, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second or faster to freeze the motion and avoid blur.
For capturing fast-moving subjects with a Canon Rebel T7, it is recommended to use a shutter speed of at least 1/500 or faster to freeze the motion and avoid blur in the image.
To change the shutter speed on a Nikon D90, turn the mode dial to "S" for Shutter Priority mode. Then, use the command dial to adjust the shutter speed to your desired setting.
