Setting the Exposure
Effect of Aperture and Shutter Speed
Correct exposure of the subject is determined by a combination of shutter speed and aperture setting. There are many correct combinations of shutter speed and aperture value for a particular subject. Different combinations produce different effects.
Effect of Shutter Speed
By changing the shutter speed, you can manipulate how time is expressed in the pictures you create. Unlike with your own naked eyes, in a picture you can capture a fraction of a moment or a whole period of time, creating different effects.
Use the b(Shutter Priority) mode.
Using slower shutter speed
If the subject is moving, the image will be blurred because the shutter is open longer.
It is possible to enhance the effect of motion (rivers, waterfalls, waves, etc.) by intentionally using a slower shutter speed.
Using faster shutter speed
Choosing a faster shutter speed will allow freezing the action of a moving subject. A faster shutter speed also helps to prevent camera shake.
Effect of Aperture
By changing the aperture, you can control the depth of the area that appears in focus in the picture (the depth of field). By either narrowing the focus to emphasize a single point or giving depth to your picture instead you can completely change the feel of the picture you create.
Use the c(Aperture Priority) mode.
