The sense of dynamism and amount of background defocus in subjects vary by
changing the combinations of shutter speed and f ‑ number even if the exposure is
the same.

The camera can make a fast-moving subject appear static at a fast shutter speed, or
highlight the motion of a moving subject at a slow shutter speed.
