How to choose the shutter speed when shooting?

Yesterday, I talked to you about the aperture. Today I will talk about another important parameter in photography-shutter. Shutter is a device on the camera to control the exposure time. Speaking of shutter in photography, it is also called shutter speed.

Shutter speed is expressed in time, such as 1/60s,1/30s,1/2s,1sec, 30s, etc. On the camera, to directly adjust the shutter speed, the camera should be set to the shutter priority mode (TV gear), and the shutter speed should be adjusted through the camera dial. How to set the shutter speed Generally speaking, when shooting in hand, the shutter speed should be above 1/50 seconds, so as to ensure that the photos are not blurred. When shooting high-speed moving objects, you need a high-speed shutter, and a higher shutter speed can freeze the moment. As shown below, the motorcycle rider's acceleration moment can be clearly photographed with a high-speed shutter.

Shooting night scenes or recording tracks requires a low shutter speed. At this time, it is necessary to use a tripod to fix the camera to ensure that the photos taken are not blurred.

As shown in the figure below, the sky is full of stars even in the dark night through long exposure with a low-speed shutter.
