Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Shutter Speed As Fast As Possible”.
There aren’t many better ways to capture a moment in time than taking a great photo. But how do you do this when that moment passes in the blink of an eye and the photo you took comes out super blurry or what, if you want to capture a sense of movement in a photo, but you don’t want it to look like one giant Smear this is where knowing how to properly adjust your camera’s shutter speed can be the key to getting your shots perfect along with aperture and ISO, which we previously covered here on tech, wiki shutter speed is one of the three key exposure variables that will affect how A picture looks shutter. Speed is simply a measure of how long the cameras you guessed it shutter stays open to let light through, unlike aperture, which is a measure of how wide the shutter opens and ISO, which controls the sensitivity to light. The shutter speed directly affects how long the camera will physically see whatever it’s pointed at, meaning that if you have two cameras pointing at the same moving object, but with significantly different shutter speeds, the two pictures will come out looking dramatically different. Why is this? Well, if you have your camera set to a slow, shutter speed, the shutter will be open long enough to capture a fast-moving object, traveling from one place to another and since you’re recording a still image, not a video which is comprised of multiple still images.
This will just come out as a blur. A fast shutter speed, on the other hand, will open and close so quickly that you won’t see much motion at all, just like it’s harder for you to perceive something as actually moving. If you open and shut your eyes very very quickly, so the result, then, is a frozen moment captured in the photo without blurring now. Typically, shutter speeds are measured in fractions of a second with speeds between one sixtieth of a second and one 250th of a second being common for everyday photography, such as landscape shots or casual portraits of your friends.
But what, if you’re getting shots of something like a basketball game where the players are running up and down the court or you’re, doing nature, photography and need to capture a fast-moving bird or wild cat? This is where much quicker. Shutter speeds come in handy to prevent, blurring and higher end cameras can have shutter speeds as quick as one four thousandth or one eight thousandth of a second and some highly specialized cameras can even handle one. Sixteen thousand of a setting that can capture really cool shots. Like a bullet, as it travels through the air well hold on a second, then our fast shutter times always the best thing.
Then, while all those slow shutter speeds can produce undesirable blur in some situations in others, they can produce really cool effects that you just can’t get any other way. Have you ever seen those shots of cities at night where highway traffic just looks like long red and white streets? Those were produced by using long shutter speeds of two seconds or even longer, because while things like buildings and street signs will stay in one place, the cars are obviously moving, meaning that you can get those cool light streaks without making the city around them. Look blurry, slow, shutter speeds are also useful for making waterfalls look like they’re moving without affecting the rest of the photo and even showing the movement of stars across the night sky, where a shutter might be open for hours at a time, just make sure you’re using A really stable, tripod or something else to keep your camera in one place so that final shot looks crisp and sharp. Another thing to keep in mind is that shutter speed affects the amount of light hitting your image sensor, so make sure that you’re adjusting your ISO and your aperture to compensate if you’re going to be experimenting with really fast or really slow, shutter speeds.
But once you master, shutter speed you’ll be able to do some extremely cool things with your camera. If you’re in the right place at the right time, you might even get some sick shots of Tarin pulling off stunts on his razor scooter and somewhat ironically. This is a video about still photography. Today’S episode sponsor is videoblocks, whose unlimited library remains the best deal in stock footage. You can get unlimited downloads from a library of over 10 million dollars worth of footage.
