(16) EFFECT OF APERTURE AND SHUTTER SPEED

A correct exposure is established by a combination of

shutter speed and aperture setting according to the
subject brightness. There are many correct combina­
tions of shutter speed and aperture for a particular sub­
ject

brightness.

Different

shutter

speed

and

aperture

settings produce different effects.

Effect of Shutter Speed

The shutter speed determines the film exposure time, or
the length of time that light is allowed to strike the film.

If the subject is moving the image will be blurred when

a slow shutter speed is used. It is possible to enhance
the effect of motion, (The movement of a wave or wa­
terfall) by intentionally using a slower speed. Choosing
a high shutter speed will allow the image of a moving
subject to be frozen. A higher shutter speed also helps

prevent camera shake.
