How do you use shutter speed on a DSLR?
Shutter speed is the time the shutter is open. The faster the speed, the shorter the time the shutter is open, and the shorter the time the image sensor is exposed to light. The shorter the time the image sensor is exposed to light, the darker the resulting photograph.
What is slow shutter speed photography?
Slow shutter speeds can capture movement and introduce blur, usually for slower moving subjects. Long shutter speeds are typically around one second or longer. Like slow shutter speeds, they can be used for adding blurring effects to images.

What should the shutter speed be on a DSLR?
When deciding your shutter speed for video, use this general rule: double your frame rate. If you’re shooting at 24fps, your shutter speed should be 1/48 (rounded up on the DSLR to 1/50). If you’re shooting at 60fps, your shutter speed should be 1/120.

What’s the best aperture to use on a DSLR?
A higher aperture (e.g., f16) means less light is entering the camera. This setting is better for when you want everything in your shot to be in focus — like when you’re shooting a group shot or a landscape. A lower aperture means more light is entering the camera, which is better for low-light scenarios.
