Fast shutter speed

set the cannon to 1/225 or higher. Fast shutter speed is used for still images. For example a person riding a bike, would not be moving because it would be a fast shutter zoom. To use the shutter speed you would have to lower the flash.

Light Graffiti


The equipment used was a cannon DLSR and a Tripod was used.

The camera was set to ISO 100 to capture after 15 seconds of being shot, this was to capture the torch light in the image.

We took the image in the dark, this gave use a sharp background Torch lights that were flashed around in the air. In this image 2 torches were used, the lighting overlapped which made the image spectacular. The picture looks as though there are people in the image.

shutter zoom image

The amount of light reaching your camera's sensor is known as the exposure and this is controlled by two items on a camera - the aperture and shutter speed. The aperture is a variable hole in front of the lens that adjusts to let more or less light through and the shutter speed is a cover over the sensor that controls the length of time that the light reaches it.

panning image

In photography, panning refers to the rotation in a horizontal plane of a still or video camera. Panning a camera results in a motion similar to that of someone shaking their head "no" or of an aircraft performing a yaw rotation.

blurred motion

When a camera creates an image, that image does not always represent a single instant of time. Because of technological constraints or artistic requirements, the image may represent the scene over a period of time. As objects in a scene move, an image of that scene must represent an integration of all positions of those objects, as well as the camera's viewpoint, over the period of exposure determined by the shutter speed. In such an image, any object moving with respect to the camera will look blurred or smeared along the direction of relative motion. This smearing may occur on an object that is moving or on a static background if the camera is moving.
