How do I use shutter speed in photography?

Shutter speed controls the duration your camera's sensor is exposed to light. Faster speeds freeze motion, while slower speeds can create motion blur.

What shutter speed should I use for action shots?

For action shots, a shutter speed of 1/500 seconds or faster is ideal to freeze the motion.

Can you explain how shutter speed affects exposure?

Certainly! A faster shutter speed lets in less light, resulting in a darker image, while a slower speed allows more light, making the image brighter.

What are some tips for using slow shutter speeds?

Use a tripod to avoid camera shake, and consider using a neutral density filter to reduce light entering the lens.

How can I practice using different shutter speeds?

Try experimenting in different lighting conditions, and take photos of moving subjects at various shutter speeds to see the effects.
