SHUTTER SPEED


  • It's how long the camera shutter remains open when you take a photo.
  • It's measured in seconds or fraction of a second.
  • It makes it possible for the camera to capture time passing

Example: 1/8 second is a slow shutter speed. It makes the camera sensor be exposed to light for a longer period of time than a fast shutter speed like 1/1000 second. Most of the night shots are taken with longer exposure (example above) to capture more light.
