How to adjust the speed of micro single shutter

Lead: Many photographers don't know how to adjust the shutter of SLR or micro-camera. I will introduce it to you in easy-to-understand language, so that you can quickly understand the shutter adjustment.

Understand the shutter

Shutter is a device used to control the time of light entering the camera, and then control the amount of light entering. The longer the shutter opens, the longer the light enters, and the more light enters. The shorter the shutter opening time, the less light enters. Every camera has a shutter button, which is used to control the shutter to open and close. (Take Canon and Nikon SLR as examples. )

Adjusting the shutter of SLR camera is ultimately the adjustment of shutter time. Shutter time refers to the time when light enters the camera, also referred to as shutter. In a camera, it is usually represented by a number like 1/200 seconds. The larger the denominator, the faster the camera shutter speed, which is suitable for capturing the theme and freezing the wonderful moments; The smaller the denominator, the slower the camera shutter time, which is suitable for shooting trajectory. (The picture below shows the visual experience of different shutter times. )

Adjust the shutter

The shutter speed of SLR cameras can be adjusted in shutter priority mode (Canon is TV, Nikon is S) and manual (M). Ant takes shutter priority mode as an example to teach you how to adjust the shutter speed quickly. (The picture below shows Canon and Nikon SLR shutter priority mode)

Set the camera to shutter priority mode, and then dial the main dial of the camera to see if the shutter parameters corresponding to the screen have changed. Set shutter parameters according to your shooting scene. (The picture below shows the adjustment of Canon SLR and Nikon SLR in shutter priority mode. )

Specific scenario application

In order to ensure that hand-held shooting is not blurred, ants suggest setting the shutter speed to at least 1/50 seconds. Usually we use a high-speed shutter when capturing the movements of pets and babies. At this time, it is enough to set the shutter of 1/250 seconds. If it is a racing car that captures high-speed movement, at least ensure the shutter speed of 1/500 seconds.

On the contrary, we use slow shutter when shooting night scenes and recording tracks. Tripod is an essential accessory for shooting night scenes, in order to ensure that the picture will not shake and blur under the slow shutter. Generally, the shutter speed of 5-30 seconds is set to capture the light painting track and delicate night scene effect, and it takes at least 30 seconds to ensure the satisfactory effect of post-synthesis.

The above is the introduction of how to set the shutter of SLR camera, and the specific shutter parameter setting should be selected according to the corresponding shooting scene.
