speed and aperture setting according to the subject’s brightness.

aperture for a particular subject’s brightness. Different shutter

Effect of shutter speed
The shutter speed determines the film exposure times, or the
length of time that the light is allowed to strike the film.
If the subject is moving, the
image will be blurred when a
slow shutter speed is used.
It is possible to enhance the
effect of motion, (The
movement of a waterfall) by
intentionally using a slower
shutter speed.
Choosing a faster shutter
speed will allow the image of
a moving subject to be frozen.
A faster shutter speed also
helps prevent camera shake.
