SHUTTER SPEED


In the most basic terms possible, shutter speed controls the ability to demonstrate or stop motion in a photograph. It is the MOMENT that light is exposed (recorded) on your digital sensor (or film) and the length of the exposure. Simple, no? NO? Ok: it is the amount of time your shutter stays open when you click the button thingie. :) Shazaam. That’s it.
Shutter speed is set by fractions of a second as follows:

This explains how the f-stop and shutter speed work together to get a proper exposure.    Learn More
