Shutter speed




As you can see with these 3 images we tried to use a flashlight while in the dark to create a light paint. To do this we opened the shutter for 6-30 seconds and moved the flash light around to create a design or swirl. The designs could have been better with the table not being in the way but for a first attempt i felt this was successful and did what we set out to do.


Shutter speed: Is a setting on the camera it controls the length of time the shutter is open and allows the light to travel through the lens. If the shutter is open for too long it will create a picture that is over exposed which is where too much light travels through the lense causing a image that is too bright. If the shutter is not open long enough you will get a image that is under exposed which means that there is not enough light in the image causing it to be dark and hard to see.

DSLR: Digital single lense reflex camera, is a automatic camera that combines optics and mechanics of a single lens camera with a digital imaging sensor.
