SHUTTER SPEED IN PHOTOGRAPHY

  WHAT IS SHUTTER SPEED? A shutter is like a door for your camera sensor. The faster the shutter speed, the shorter the time the image sensor is exposed to light; the slower the shutter speed, the longer the time the image sensor is exposed to light.  Shutter speed calculates its time unit in Seconds. SLOWER SHUTTER SPEED- 1/2s,1/4s,1/10s,1/20s,1/30s FASTER SHUTTER SPEED - 1/1000s 1/2000s 1/4000s 1/5000s WHAT IS S MODE or TV MODE IN YOUR CAMERA? In this mode, you have to set the shutter speed and the camera will automatically choose the perfect Aperture or Perfect ISO to expose a well-lit image. WHEN TO USE SHUTTER SPEED LOW OR HIGH? If natural light is sufficient then choose a faster shutter speed to shoot the image and if the light is not sufficient in your subject then set the slower shutter speed to collect more light into the sensor and must use a tripod to avoid blurry images .
