Shutter speed is the speed at which the shutter of the camera closes. A fast shutter speed creates a shorter exposure — the amount of light the camera takes in — and a slow shutter speed gives the photographer a longer exposure. The faster the shutter speed, the sharper the image will be. Therefore, the slower the shutter speed, the more blurred the image is.
What do you use shutter speed for?
Shutter speed works in units of time, fractions of a second or several seconds. A higher/faster shutter speed allows less light to hit the camera sensor or film strip. Conversely, a lower/slower shutter speed allows more light to pass into your camera
PHOTO GAME.
We tested the use of shutter speed by moving at different speeds at the camera.
