The shutter speed dial of a Nikkormat EL Slow shutter speed combined with panning the camera can achieve a motion blur for moving objects. In photography, shutter speed or exposure time is the length of time that the film or digital sensor inside the camera is exposed to light (that is, when the camera's shutter is open) when taking a ...
In photography, the shutter-release button (s just shutter release or shutter button) is a push-button found on many cameras, used to record photographs. [1] When pressed, the shutter of the camera is "released", so that it opens to capture a picture, and then closes, allowing an exposure time as determined by the shutter speed setting (which ...
For example, at a focal length of 125 mm on a 35 mm camera, vibration or camera shake could affect sharpness if the shutter speed is slower than 1 ⁄ 125 second. As a result of the 2-to-4.5-stops slower shutter speeds allowed by IS, an image taken at 1 ⁄ 125 second speed with an ordinary lens could be taken at 1 ⁄ 15 or 1 ⁄ 8 second with ...
Use of a light meter for portrait cinematography in a Turkish music video set. A light meter (or illuminometer) is a device used to measure the amount of light.In photography, an exposure meter is a light meter coupled to either a digital or analog calculator which displays the correct shutter speed and f-number for optimum exposure, given a certain lighting situation and film speed.
The life-expectancy of a mechanical shutter is often expressed as a number of shutter cycles. Most digital cameras save the shutter cycle information along with the photos, which contains valuable information such as shutter speed, aperture, and shutter count. [12] There are multiple websites and applications to access the EXIF data.
A Nikon-style mode dial showing shutter priority mode. Shutter priority (usually denoted as S on the mode dial), also called time value (abbreviated as Tv ), refers to a setting on cameras that allows the user to choose a specific shutter speed while the camera adjusts the aperture to ensure correct exposure .
Another common use of aperture priority mode is to indirectly affect shutter speed for a desired effect. In landscape photography, a user might select a small aperture when photographing a waterfall, so that the camera will select a slow shutter speed (to allow a sufficient amount of light to reach the film or sensor for proper exposure), thereby causing the water to blur through the frame.

In OTF metering used by Olympus, metering was performed in one of two ways — or a combination of both — depending upon the shutter speed in use. [2] In the OM-2's Auto Dynamic Metering (ADM) system the first shutter curtain had the lens-facing side coated with a computer generated pattern of white blocks to emulate an average scene. As the ...
