A fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and more easily freezes subjects in motion GlossaryWaste Electrical & Electronic Equipment Applicable in the European Union and other European countries with separate collection systems FCC notice Index Index Index Tripod mount Thumbnails TimerTime settings Time zone settings 19 Transferring ﬁles Index
