Setting the Shutter Speed

Most of the time, PhotoPC 550 adjusts the shutter speed automatically. However, when you take pictures from your computer, you can adjust the speed manually. This lets you use special lighting effects and even take “stop-action” pictures.

On the Camera Controls window, click the arrow and select the speed you want from the pull-down list.
