In bright conditions, use a neutral density filter on the lens, set a lower camera sensitivity (ISO), or, if using artificial lights, reduce the intensity of the illumination. In dark conditions, use the built-in flash or increase the camera sensitivity (ISO).

About Shutter Speeds

The shutter speed used for each exposure is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder. The following notation is used:

The reciprocal is used for shutter speeds from 1/4000 second to 1/3 second. 125 is 1/125 second.

For shutter speeds of a half a second or longer, a quote mark is used to denote whole seconds. 1”5 is one and a half seconds and 15” is fifteen seconds.
