I know you can just change shutter speeds, but there is a pretty inexpensive camera with multiple lenses on the front that takes i'm not sure how many pictures at once. Like you would take a picture of a moving thing and each frame would be the next motion. pleaseee help me
What kind of camera takes x-amt of continuous shots, like to catch something in motion?
What you're talking about is FPS (frames per second) and my Sony Alpha takes 3 frames per second (no flash because the flash recharge time takes longer), and there are faster...I think the Canon Eos was rated #1 by Consumer Reports this year, making it a best buy...my Sony is around $500 just for the body...and I think I paid around $300 for the flash...and another $200 for a longer lens. Good luck!

Nikon and Canon DSLR's can do that. Some models will shoot faster than others.
Look at this link:
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_鈥?/a>
You will see in these cameras the continuous shooting rate varies.
fhotoace is correct, but that continuous mode isn't limited to those models. I would predict that most all DSLR cameras do that. They're relatively expensive. If you are looking for a more inexpensive camera, you might want to look into SLR-like cameras. I have a Panasonic FZ8 and it has a continuous burst mode. It takes 3 photos in about a second as long as you keep the button pressed. I'd say most of the SLR-like cameras have that mode. Pretty nifty for sports events, just make sure you have enough room on your storage card.

Math/Photography: How does changing the shutter speed affect the output value?
A scenario:
Two photographs are taken using a digital camera. One photograph is taken with a shutter speed of 1/30, the other with a shutter speed of 1/60. The images are output as 8 bits per channel, RGB files. If the value in channel C, at co-ordinates X,Y of the first photograph is 128, what should the value be in C,X,Y of the second photograph and why?
Simple logic suggests that, assuming the response curve of the camera is linear, the second value should be half that of the first, since the amount of light hitting the sensor is halved, but this appears not to be the case. Instead, the value in C,X,Y of the first photograph appears to be approximately equal to the value in C,X,Y of the second photograph, multiplied by the square root of two. Why?

How to take decent pictures?
I am learning to take pics and recently I was taking pictures of moving water. I've seen a lot of pictures that look so good with running water. I want to know how to take pictures like that. I know you have to change shutter speed, and all the rest of that. But could someone give me details on when to change what in situations like these? I use a Kodak EasyShare CX7530. Thanks!
How to take decent pictures?
Practice, practice, and more practice. Often we see the results but we don't see the effort that went behind the picture.Some photographers shoot for years and acquire experience and they know what composition and lighting to look for. Also for every great pictures, there are many that the photographer discards. With digital cameras you are able to freely experiment and get instant feedback.
If you are taking pictures of moving water, I would recommend you get a good sturdy tripod. I believe the tripod is the single most underrated accessory that most consumers don't bother to buy to improve their photography.
Play around with the shutter speed first of all. This makes a big difference on how the water will look like in the final picture. Having too fast shutter speed will make the water appear lifeless and static. Having too slow a shutter speed and the water will appear over exposed and a white blob, with very little detail. The right shutter speed will bring out the detail in the water and still be able to portray the motion and fluidity of the water.
Different lighting conditions also play a factor. Don't photograph directly in bright sunlight. Try to shoot water in diffuse lighting and preferably dimmer light like in the late afternoon. You will need to set your camera on a tripod, and possibly use a remote control or use the camera timer to avoid camera shake.
That's all I can think of at the moment. Good luck.

You'll need to play around with shutter speed and ISO settings to get the best pics for these kinds of things.
TechLore has a great article that should tell you what you need to know called %26quot;Using Your Camera's ISO Setting to Get the Shot%26quot;. http://www.techlore.com/article/17308/Us鈥?/a>
if you have a night time setting on your camera you will get great moving shots as the flash goes off about 3 times before the pic is taken email me if u want to see some ocean pics i took using it.
I agree with the previous posters. Two other things:
1. Experiment with photographing from different angles, since this will determine if you see through the water or a reflection on the water.
2. Like any photography, experiment both with and without a flash.
Experiment, diffirent speeds work better for diffirent situatuions!
don't know how to set your camera,
but, if u want to snap running watter here's a simpler theory
a fast shutter speed will freeze the water.(provided with enuff lighting for tht fast shutter)
a slow shutter speed will blur the water.
What effect are you trying to achieve? I'm going to guess and say you want the water to look like smoke,or kinda hazy.You need to put your shutter speed down to about 1 sec. You will achieve some good results at 1/8 ,1/15 or so too. To get your shutter speed down to this in the daytime you will probably need to use a neutral density filter.Can you change the shutter speed on your camera....let me look...........hey yeah you can, I didn't think you could when I first saw it but yeah you can bring it down all the way to 4 secs....ok ok put your camera on a tripod,because you wont be able to hold a 1 sec exposure.put your camera on a low ISO,like 80 or 100,frame you water subject, and hold the neutral density filter over the lens...careful not to touch the camera and shake it...I don't think filters will thread into your cam.....put camera on auto and shoot one just for the hell of it ...then put you shutter down to 1 sec. and try another...keep playing around with the shutter settings until you get the results you want....Good luck

ISO and Shutter Speed, with a DSC-H10?
I did read the manual included with the camara... Still, i cannot figure out how to ADJUST the shutter speed, or ISO ... i want to change the speed of the shutter to take better action pics, and the standar mode just doesnt cut it...
ISO and Shutter Speed, with a DSC-H10?
if it's not in the manual call the company
ISO and Shutter Speed, with a DSC-H10?
Well I dont own one, but there is a good chance that you can adjust shutter speed. Most point and shoots dont allow that. Most point and shoots do allow some adjustment of ISO usually you have to put into some sort of manual mode.

How to use the Canon Rebel K2?
Ok i need a total dunny's guide because i cannot understand anything that is being said in the manual.
((I plan on using the camera in its manual mode, not automatic))
What do the letters on the dial (P, Tv, Av, M) stand for?
How do i turn flash on and off?
How do i change shutter speed and aperture?
Where is the light meter?
Any other extra info will be GREATLY appreciated!
Thank you all in advance!
How to use the Canon Rebel K2?
What do the letters on the dial (P, Tv, Av, M) stand for?
P stands for Program (the camera does all the thinking. It's like Auto, only you can make adjustments to the auto programming.)
Tv stands for %26quot;Time Value%26quot; which is a fancy way of saying %26quot;shutter speed preferred.%26quot; You set the shutter speed and the camera will choose the (hopefully) right aperture or lens opening.
Av stands for %26quot;Aperture Value%26quot; which means aperture preferred. You set the aperture and the camera will set the shutter speed.
M stands for Manual; you set both the aperture and shutter speed yourself.
How do i turn flash on and off?
--generally, the camera may automatically pop the flash up when it thinks it's needed. Otherwise, cameras either have a button next to the prism to pop the flash up, or you just raise the flash up by hand.
How do i change shutter speed and aperture?
--There should be a little wheel on the camera to do this. It'll look like a knurled wheel, usually behind the shutter release on Canon cameras.
Where is the light meter?
--It's inside the camera. Turn the camera on and look through the viewfinder. As you move from light to dark, the display should change (you may have to partially depress the shutter release to activate the meter); that's the light meter.
How to use the Canon Rebel K2?
Come on now, don't be lazy. Read your manual slowly and learning it with your camera will help a lot. I got my first photography lesson by myself this way - I read one section of the manual, try it, and when I succeeded, I move on to another section of the manual.
P stands for program - its similar to Automatic but you can adjust it for compensation.
Tv is Shutter speed priority. If you move the command dial, your camera will change its shutter speed settings accordingly.
Av is Aperture priority. If you move the command dial, your camera will change aperture value (f stop)
M for manual. if you move the command dial, your camera will change its shutter speed setting, and if you push the AE button while moving the command dial, you'll change the aperture value.
You turn flash on and off with the little button on the top left side of the camera. It should be near the viewfinder. To turn it off you can easily pop it back in.
Shutter speed and aperture... read above.
Light meter is in the camera. You can read the reading in the status LCD or in the viewvinder
Any other extra will be in the manual and you will GREATLY appreciate what's in the manual.
%26quot;P%26quot; is for Program Mode
%26quot;Av%26quot; is for Aperture Preferred Mode (you set the aperture aka f-stop and the camera sets the shutter speed)
%26quot;Tv%26quot; is for Shutter Preferred Mode (you set the shutter speed, the camera selects an f-stop)
%26quot;M%26quot; is Manual Mode - you set aperture and shutter speed
The light meter is built into the camera and measures the light coming through the lens
I suggest you attend a photography class if one is available where you live. If not, do a web search for Canon User Groups.
You might also want to search ebay or amazon.com for the Magic Lantern Guide for your camera. Such after-market Guides are usually well-illustrated and much easier to follow (in most cases) than the original Owner's Manual.Name for a black cat networking

How do you take a fast motion picture like this?
Like thisss picture:
http://flickr.com/photos/chrismetzgerpho鈥?/a>
Do you have to change shutter speed or the aperture or something?
How do you take a fast motion picture like this?
That is a long exposure shot. You have to use a long shutter speed like 5 or more seconds. But you have to use a small aperture size to avoid over exposing the film if you're shooting in daylight. If you have a digital camera, it will help you set the aperture correctly.
Long exposures are really fun at night. Here's some I did this summer on vacation. The shutter speed was 15 seconds and the aperture was f/8 on most of them.
http://www.chesterfamily.org/gallery/Lak鈥?/a>
Also, you need a good and rigid tripod because any movement of the camera will blur the image - unless of course you WANT the camera to move, which I have done before too. Try that while shooting Christmas lights.
How do you take a fast motion picture like this?
The shutter speed has to be really long. In this case, i would say it was at least 5 seconds.
It all has to do with the shutter speed on manuel mode.
Using %26quot;B mode%26quot; shutter speed and hold for about 30 seconds or 45 seconds,very easy lah..

Samsung s860 digital camera, any good features i can use to take good photos?
hi,
does this camera have any features, unlike usual cameras that i can take good pictures with. i think that it is a good camera however i want to take very good photos, i know how to change shutter speed, however ive always wondered how they make the sky dark at the top and light at the bottem.
thanks
Samsung s860 digital camera, any good features i can use to take good photos?
This camera isn't going to take really nice pictures. If you want to take excellent pictures then you might want to think about investing in a little more money. Consumer Reports doesn't recommend the camera you're looking at but they do recommend the Samsung SL310 14MP. In fact, they rate this camera with the BEST image quality for a point and shoot camera. I actually just ordered that camera for myself and it's only costing me about $180. Also if you'd like to be able to control your pictures like that then I would recommend an Nikon D40 which is a 6MP great image quality entry level DSLR for over $400. Good Luck

KODAK camera, C613 zoom camera. Shutter speed..?
This is the camera I have:
http://www.kodak.com/global/en/service/p鈥?/a>
I am doing a photography course, and we have to use different settings to get good results on our photos. There is a thing where we have to spin a torch around, and capture a picture of that, all the lines and the light of the torch.
How do I change the shutter speed, or will it work how it is.
What is the best setting to have it one, any tips on getting good results?
Cheeers :)
KODAK camera, C613 zoom camera. Shutter speed..?
To do light trails at night you need to have a shutter speed of several seconds. The only thing i can think of worth trying is to set your scene mode to 'fireworks', this MIGHT allow a slightly longer shutter speed (ie the camera will choose a longer shutter speed). It may be enough to capture a little bit of trail...or may not.
For a photography course, you'd do better to get a bridge camera or DSLR where you can manually adjust things like shutter speed %26amp; aperture. I would imagine that the course might require variable apertures later so you can learn about depth of field - you're going to run into the same problems again.
KODAK camera, C613 zoom camera. Shutter speed..?
That camera doesn't have Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, or Manual mode. It won't let you do the things you want.
You'll need to get another camera. An SLR for your class would be advisable, but digital ones start at around $500 and go up from there fast. You can find film SLRs online used for about the price of going out to eat. If you're smart about the film it doesn't cost that much you'll force yourself to learn rather than spray and pray (take shot after shot until you stumble upon the proper setting).
Just make sure your next camera has a fully functional M mode.
Your camera seems to be to simplistic to offer really such options. Indeed your camera is a point a click, one that doesn't seems to be begifted with the settings that you find on lets say a bridge camera or SLR.
For shots to freeze the image use sport mode
For shots where you need to keep the shutter open long enough for trails to form...good luck. Maybe for the lowest ISO so it has to keep the shutter open the longest.
As above mentioned a cheaper option is a film SLR. Atleast there you have the controls [Program, Apperture, Speed, Manual] to get the effects your photo course teaches you.
Point and shoots are just that press the button there you go. But if you want something else then the automatic modes offer you you are out of luck.
Film SLR also is very good way to start actually.

Film Canon EOS 1000F. Multiple exposure? ISO/shutter speed? Help?
I recently inherited one of these babies: http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/eos/eoscamera/EOS1000FRebelS/index.htm
It's a lovely little thing- except I don't know how to use it! How can execute the %26quot;multiple exposure%26quot; technique with this thing? I don't know where the film rewind button is....
Also, how can I change the shutter speed/ISO. What does a higher shutter speed mean and what does a lower shutter speed mean? When is the situation appropriate to use these settings?
Thank you in advance :)
Film Canon EOS 1000F. Multiple exposure? ISO/shutter speed? Help?
if by multiple exposure you mean shooting more than 1 picture on the same piece of film then you can't do that with this camera. it is an auto wind/rewind camera with no multiple exposure button to allow shutter re-arming without advancing the film.
you shouldn't need to change the ISO because this camera has auto ISO sensing for all film cartridges with DX sensing strips (which is basically all film unless you roll it yourself). however, if you want to verify the ISO turn the top dial to ISO and see what the number says on the little lcd display.
shutter speed can be changed in either M mode or Tv mode. a high or fast shutter speed is used to take pictures of fast moving action like sports. a low or slow shutter speed may be used in low light situation like inside or at night but a tripod or stable support will be needed to avoid camera shake. you can also use a slow shutter speed to capture motion blur like those night pictures of the freeway when all the lights of the cars are streaking by.
most importantly you need to learn how to read your light meter. on that camera i believe it's at the bottom as you look through the viewfinder. it should also read out on the lcd display in M mode. for starters it may help to keep the camera in Tv mode. this allows you to set the shutter speed and the camera does the rest based on the film you have loaded inside. this way the light meter is always reads in the middle as it's supposed to but without so much work on your part.
it may also help to document your shots as you shoot them. write down the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO for each shot. then when you get your film developed you can look and see what went right and what went wrong and then correct it. it's cumbersome but it'll only take a couple rolls of film before you figure out what works and what doesn't.
Film Canon EOS 1000F. Multiple exposure? ISO/shutter speed? Help?
First, do an on-line search for an Owner's Manual for your camera. Try here:
http://www.safemanuals.com
http://www.butkus.org/chinon/
You can also try eBay if you want.
Second, spend time reading %26amp; studying the Manual.
Trying to use the camera without the Manual is a waste of time - and frustrating.

you shouldn't need to change the ISO because this camera has auto ISO sensing for all film cartridges with DX sensing strips (which is basically all film unless you roll it yourself). however, if you want to verify the ISO turn the top dial to ISO and see what the number says on the little lcd display.
shutter speed can be changed in either M mode or Tv mode. a high or fast shutter speed is used to take pictures of fast moving action like sports. a low or slow shutter speed may be used in low light situation like inside or at night but a tripod or stable support will be needed to avoid camera shake. you can also use a slow shutter speed to capture motion blur like those night pictures of the freeway when all the lights of the cars are streaking by.
most importantly you need to learn how to read your light meter. on that camera i believe it's at the bottom as you look through the viewfinder. it should also read out on the lcd display in M mode. for starters it may help to keep the camera in Tv mode. this allows you to set the shutter speed and the camera does the rest based on the film you have loaded inside. this way the light meter is always reads in the middle as it's supposed to but without so much work on your part.
it may also help to document your shots as you shoot them. write down the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO for each shot. then when you get your film developed you can look and see what went right and what went wrong and then correct it. it's cumbersome but it'll only take a couple rolls of film before you figure out what works and what doesn't.
Film Canon EOS 1000F. Multiple exposure? ISO/shutter speed? Help?
First, do an on-line search for an Owner's Manual for your camera. Try here:
http://www.safemanuals.com

You can also try eBay if you want.
Second, spend time reading %26amp; studying the Manual.
Trying to use the camera without the Manual is a waste of time - and frustrating.
Can you slow the shutter speed with a digital camera?
I have a Sony Cybershot. I was just wondering because I want to do one of those videos for my media class where you have a light in your hand, move extremely fast and then have the shutter speed set extremely slow so it has that really cool effect in the end. Is that even possible with the camera I have? I can't figure out how to change the shutter speed!
Can you slow the shutter speed with a digital camera?
You want a long exposure, sometimes called bulb mode. Most compacts do not give you this option. Usually only the top end compacts have manual controls for aperture and shutter speed. if you can't find the info in your manual, it's probably not an option. All dSLRs can do this however.
The technique you are referring to is called light painting.
Can you slow the shutter speed with a digital camera?
With that model of cybershot?
I think so.
Oh, wait.
You didn't tell us what model you were using.
I don't know.
You come on here asking for help but don't provide basic information.
Sony make and have made a lot of cameras.
General hint: if it has a dial with the letter 'S' on it then you probably can.
More general hint: we are a helpful bunch on here, Just give us the basics.
If it's like my PowerShot, then you set the dial to M and you can control all the settings manually. But it probably won't work in the video mode.hair loss treatment heal yellowing toenails

Canon Sx20 IS Shutter Speed...?
I bought my Canon one month ago and I cant, for the life of me, figure out how to change the shutter speed. I've looked at all the manual setting and I still can't find it. Am I missing the obvious?
I went to my nephews soccer practice and took some pictures in 'Action' mode but the colors were to vivid so I changed it to Manual and got all the settings to my liking but they came out very blurry. If you could be kind enough to tell me where the Shutter speed is located I'll give you 10 points.
Thanks much. -Skylar

Digital camer shutter speed!!!please help?
okay, im really confused with this. I can change the shutter speed on my camera (fujifilm s5700) and i know how, but i really just dont understand. the instruction manual says %26quot;shutter speed setting 4 secs. to 1/1000 sec. in 1/3 ev increments%26quot;. I have no idea which one is the fastest/quickest time.
Digital camer shutter speed!!!please help?
The fastest time is 1/1000. That's a part of 1 second. If you can imagine a second broken into 1000 pieces, the amount of time would just be 1 piece or 1/1000 of a second.
The slowest time is 4 seconds.
Now, for the numbers, from fastest to slowest...
1/1000, 1/750, 1/500, 1/250......
As you can see, as the bottom number gets smaller, the shutter gets slower.
Of course, if you weren't sure which was the fastest and slowest...try taking a photo at 4 seconds....vs. a photo at 1/1000. You'll figure out pretty quick which one is the slowest.
Digital camer shutter speed!!!please help?
the smallest is the fastest. 1/1000 will be the fastest. What this means is how long, how many seconds, the shutter will remain open.
You have a digital camera, so do some tests and see for yourself. That way you will know what your camera will do under your conditions.
1/3 increments means 1/3 stop increments.
the bigger number on the bottom of the fraction is the fastest

Camera shutter speed?
i have a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S85, and i want to change the shutter speed but im not sure how. The thing i found that i think is the shutter speed, keeps making is darker (when its on a low number like 8, it is bright, and the number goes from 8%26quot; up to 1000, but if i set it at 1000, the screen is almost 100% black)
Camera shutter speed?
This camera does have a shutter priority mode as well as a aperture priority mode and even full manual mode. The shutter speed is selectable from 8 seconds to a fast 1/1000 of a second. You may have the camera in full manual mode. By selecting the shutter speed but not properly adjusting the aperture, you will get results similar to what you mentioned. Make sure the camera is in shutter priority mode, that way the camera will select the correct aperture for you. Otherwise you will need to open the aperture as you increase the shutter speed to let enough light.
Camera shutter speed?
The shutter speed (time in seconds) is equal to : 1/1000 or 1/8 and so on.
Yes, that's your shutter speed. Shutter speed limits the amount of light let into your camera (how long the shutter stays open for). Usually to use anything less than 1/60, you need a tripod.
Here's an article you may want to check out for more info.
http://www.berniecode.com/writing/photog鈥?/a>
You are not understanding how to yield a proper exposure. I am not sure if your camera has a shutter priority mode, i doubt it, seeing as it is a point and shoot camera. You can't just set a wild shutter speed that won't work in the scene, it's not possible. Although Shutter Priority mode is an Auto mode, you can't set it literally to anything you want. For example, there is no way you are going to get a 1/1000 shutter speed in a low light room at f/8. You need to take a class or two in photograph to better your skills with exposure.
These books will help you:
%26quot;Understanding Exposure%26quot; and %26quot;Understanding Shutter Speed%26quot; both by Bryan Peterson.
Of course, if you'll READ %26amp; STUDY the Owner's Manual for your camera you'll have a better idea of how to actually use it. I'm certain that the Manual will explain Aperture Priority and Shutter Priority and how to use them on your camera.
**** EDIT ****
The shutter does NOT %26quot;... limit the amount of light let into the camera ...%26quot; The aperture (f-stop) in the lens determines how much light is admitted. The shutter speed controls how long the light admitted is allowed to expose the film or digital sensor.

Finepix Shutter Speed?
I'm stummped, can anyone help me? I have a Finepix FujiFilm Z20 FD, and I'm currently trying to do light graffiti, does anybody know how to change the shutter speed? I just cannot find it, at all.
Please%26amp;Thank you :]
Finepix Shutter Speed?
To do what you want, you need a camera that has a %26quot;bulb%26quot; setting, a tripod and a remote shutter release to lock the shutter open during the time you are making your graffiti images
While your Z20fd is a fine point and shoot camera, it was never intended to be a fully adjustable camera, so has no aperture or shutter speed priority mode. With trickery, you can get the camera to shoot at 4 seconds, but not long enough to do any serious graffiti writing.

Three things-
Get a good book on photography. Ansel Adam's books like 'Camera' are a good place to start.
Take your camera out and start experimenting.
If possible, click few rolls of film on a SLR and master the basics.

You can change the aperture and shutter speed on your camera, so your manual should show you how to do it. Then it just takes a lot of practice. And buying a good book on photography will help, too.

Best shutter speed for...?
I have a brand new camera, and I know nothing about anything photography. I figured out how to change the shutter speed, but I have no idea what the different speeds mean. I am going to watch pro tennis this weekend, and I would like to take 3 types of pictures: action shots without blur (figured out how to do that), shots where the player isn't blurred but the background is, and shots where the player is blurred but the background isn't.
Can anyone help me out?
Best shutter speed for...?
Shutter speed is quoted on cameras in seconds (long shutter speeds) or parts of a second (shorter shutter speeds), eg 1/1000 means that the shutter curtain opens and shuts in one thousandth of a second, ie very fast!
To capture fast moving sports and keep everything sharp you need a fast shutter speed (maybe up to 1/1000 or faster, it depends on how fast the person is moving, you may need to experiment a bit) - this will render player and background sharp.
To get the player blurred and the background sharp, use a slower shutter speed - again experiment but around 1/60 should do.
You're other request - to keep the player sharp but the background blurred isn't so much to do with shutter speeds but also moving the camera - if your shutter speed is fast you may need to 'pan' the camera to blur the b/g and drop the shutter speed a bit.
The one obstacle in all of this is how much light you've got. If you want to shoot fast shutter speeds %26amp; still get a good exposure, you may have to open up the aperture a lot if tis a very gloomy, grey day and how much you can do that depends on what lens you're using. With a wide open aperture you'll also lose depth of field and the image quality will not be best wide open. You may be able to gain some aperture stops by increasing the ISO at which you shoot, but as the ISO goes up, the image will get noisier. Unfortunately, its all about a trade-off.
Best shutter speed for...?
What type of camera do you have? If you want a picture where the subject is sharp and the background is blurred (hardest thing to do, when player is moving) you might need to set your camera on %26quot;AI servo%26quot; (if canon) or %26quot;Continuous servo AF%26quot; (if nikon). If you have another brand, I'm not sure what the equivalent is. This will track the subject of the photo when it moves.
When the subject is blurred, try shooting at 1/2 second. If its bright, you'll need to make sure your ISO is all the way down (100) and your f-stop will need to be more closed, like around f8 or so... depending on the light and other factors.
For a panning shot, you want the shutter around 1/80 to 1/125. The player should be moving quickly one way, predictably so you can follow him or her. You have to keep the camera really solid on the player during the movement. It will take some tries to get it right.
The anti-panning shot, where the background is steady and clear and the player is not, you'll have to slow the shutter down probably a bit more, 1/30 or 1/50 sec or even slower. Possibly put the camera on a tripod and take the shot. You may have to get the background focused, turn the autofocus off and take the pics, otherwise the camera will try to focus on the player, which will be blurry and the background will also be out of focus, subsequently it will also be blurry. A photo with a blurry subject and background would be rather undesirable.

Samsung Sl 202 Shutter Speed, LIGHT PAINTING?
Ok, so i got the Samsung SL 202 in case you didnt read the title. Im really interested in Light Painting, only problem is that I'm not sure how to change the shutter speed on this camera, so if any one can tell me how that would help me out so much. THanks, and I'll give someone who can actually tell me and it works, ten points for best answer.

Instead of asking the same question several times, wouldn't it be easier to just read the manual?
In case you lost your book, I just looked it up for you so you wouldn't have to work too hard: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/conten鈥?/a>
Samsung Sl 202 Shutter Speed, LIGHT PAINTING?
It seems that you did not do the research on what exactly light painting is and what controls you will need your camera to have to be able to create such images.
Light painting takes long exposures, usually longer than one minute. This can only be accomplished using a camera that has the bulb option to make long exposures.
Since a quick look at your camera indicates that the longest exposure is 15 seconds and you would have to be able to tell the camera you want its shutter speed to be that long.
Your camera has the longest shutter speed of 15 seconds. Not nearly long enough to do any serious light painting or light graffiti.
This is the process for shooting light graffiti or paint with light.
Mount your camera on tripod.
Shoot at night with the light out.
Set your camera to bulb
Using a remote shutter release, open the shutter for at least a few minutes or long enough to complete your painting with light projectcover up a fungus toenail dc motor via rheostat

How to change Samsung TL220 shutter speed?
Whenever I have a question/problem such as yours, I read the user's guide (aka %26quot;the manual%26quot;).
It is amazing just how much I always learn from that.
If that doesn't help (or if I'm interested in a product I don't own), I check the manufacturer's website.
They have descriptions and specs for their gadgets, often have user forums, and the decent manufacturers all let you download the manuals in electronic form (so losing the book is no longer a problem).
99% of the time that does the trick.

They have descriptions and specs for their gadgets, often have user forums, and the decent manufacturers all let you download the manuals in electronic form (so losing the book is no longer a problem).
99% of the time that does the trick.
Make Kodak P880 shutter speed faster?
I have a Kodak P880 digital camera and the time between pictures is super long. Does anyone know how to change the shutter speed and which one is the fastest for faster picture taking? Thanks.
Make Kodak P880 shutter speed faster?
You can manually adjust the shutter speed, within the limits of the aperture on the lens and ISO setting. But if your issue is with the time *between* pictures, it's almost certainly not an issue of shutter speed, it's an issue of the speed at which the picture is being written to the SD card. That, in turn, is a function of the size of the image being stored and the speed of the card.
If you're using RAW mode, the files are going to be very large. Consider using JPEG for less critical shots. If you primarily use JPEG and still find the time between shots excessive, consider buying a faster SD card. I have a camera with similar capabilities and am very happy with the 80X Transcend SD card, available for a very reasonable price at places like newegg.com.

Canon EOS Rebel K2, shutter speed?
I am in photo I at my high school, and I have an assignment showing motion using the shutter speed. My teacher never explained how to change the shutter speed in class, so if you could explain it for my camera, that'd be great. Thanks.
Canon EOS Rebel K2, shutter speed?
I have never used a K2, nor seen one, but I know what you are trying to achieve. On my Canon bodies, TV mode is the mode used to change shutter speed (known as 'Shutter Priority'). Select this on the mode dial and then adjust the length of the shutter on the camera using the appropriate dial.
Remember that adjusting the shutter speed in TV will also adjust your aperture.
Remember for long shutter speeds you will need a tripod.
P.S. Its is good to see a photography student using 35mm to learn about photography, if I taught it I would make all my students use film first, then digital.. You sound like you have a wise teacher.

Samsung s850 shutter speed?
okay i've had my camera (samsung s850) for a few months now. and i just now figured out how to change the shutter speed. and when i do change it to anything higher than 1s the picture gets significantly darker. when i set it to 1/60 its completely black unless i point it at my tv or light. but if the shutter speed is at 1s its pretty blurry unless i hold the camera completely still which is really hard to do. any help here?
Samsung s850 shutter speed?
A 1 sec. or longer shutter speed is considered quite slow. You cannot handhold a camera for 1 sec. or more (in very low light) and expect to get a blur free shot. You will need to mount the camera on a tripod and use the time delay feature to minimize camera movement during the exposure....and you will need to use a longer shutter than 1 sec. Your camera has a minimum shutter of 15 seconds so you should try slightly longer speeds till you get the correct exposure.
You can also make sure the aperture is as wide as it goes (probably f2.8 on your camera, you will need to select M on the mode dial to select both your shutter speed and aperture). Or if you select the aperture only, the camera will select the correct shutter speed (a tripod will be needed).
1/60th is obviously much too fast a shutter speed for the amount of available light. You should either provide more light or use the flash if you don't want to use a tripod.
You can also up the ISO a little...but be careful, because higher ISO means 'noise'.
There really are so many options for getting the right exposure. It just takes a little experimentation/knowledge on your part...
I suggest you have a thorough read of your user guide so you understand exactly how all those manual settings on the mode dial work...and also you should read up on some basic photography principles to help you understand a little more about photography in general...there are plenty of online sites/books available.
good luck...

Changing aperture & shutter speed? (Canon)?
hi,
i own a Canon Eos 400D camera, and recently have been trying to get a bit more into photography. unfortunately, i don't know where the manual is, and i'm struggling to work out how to change the aperture %26amp; shutter speed settings on it. can anyone help?
thanks.
Changing aperture %26amp; shutter speed? (Canon)?
In Av (aperture Value) mode the scroller next to the shutter release controls the aperture. The camera will meter for the shutter speed.
In Tv (time value) mode the scroller next to the shutter release controls the shutter speed. The camera will meter for the aperture.
In M (full manual) mode the scroller controls the shutter, if you press the Av button on the rear of the cam and scroll it then controls the aperture.
The meter will not control exposure in Manual mode though the camera will indicate whether it thinks you will over or under expose with your chosen settings, you can choose to ignore or follow the meters advice. With a DSLR you will see instantly if you are way out. Shoot RAW and you can salvage things up to a point if need be.

i dont have the same make of camera as you but if there is a dial thing on it then you have to change that to the shutter speed mode (s) or aperture (a) then you rotate the other dial-the one without any writing on it near the shutter button-and it will change the shutter speed or aperture of whatever. hope this helped :D

Right there are three modes which you need to know about.
Tv - You control the shutter speed. Camera determines the aperture
Av - Controls the aperture. Autoexposure sets the shutter speed.
In these two modes you the button labelled +/- on the back of the camera adjusts exposure compensation. Also there should be a function of Saftety Shift which automatically change the settings if the autoexposure system finds that it can't get a suitable exposure from the shutter speed or aperture you want to use.
For example if you're shooting in Av mode using f/2 ISO400 on a sunny day, your shutter speed will end up being faster than 1/4000. Saftety shift will automatically adjust the aperture so that the image isn't overexposed.
Then there is M mode. This is manual mode, my favourite because I find that the AE system frequently is a bit dim witted. This gives you control over both the shutter speed and aperture. The dial controls the shutter speed and the +/- button with the dial controls the aperture.mac studio fix powder How to make a baby quilt

Sony 350 digital camera Shutter speed?
I am new to the world of photography and i was wondering how do i change the shutter speed on my camera to something like 2 seconds basically i want to take a picture where i can capture the movement of the image ie, a river
Sony 350 digital camera Shutter speed?
A 2 second shutter speed is a long shutter speed and will require the use of a tripod. To use such a long shutter speed in the daytime will require a low ISO and a very small aperture and you'll still need a Neutral Density (ND) filter. Its actually impossible to achieve a 2 sec. shutter speed on a sunny day without an ND filter. The %26quot;Sunny 16 Rule%26quot; can be used to prove this. It states: %26quot;On a sunny day, set your aperture to f16 and your shutter speed to 1/ISO.%26quot; Using your camera's minimum ISO of 100 means you'd be using a shutter speed of 1/100 @ f16 on a sunny day. If you're using the 18-70mm lens you can stop down to f22 at 18mm and drop your shutter speed to 1/50 sec. At 70mm you can stop down to f36 and get a shutter speed of approx. 1/20 sec.
Here is a good place to learn more about the ND filters: http://www.answers.com/topic/neutral-den鈥?/a>
Its time to READ %26amp; STUDY the Owner's Manual for your camera. That is how you learn to actually use your camera and all its features.

How do I adjust both aperture and shutter speed on Canon's 1000D Manual mode?
Im starting to use manual mode on my canon 1000D and i'm wondering how to change both aperture and shutter speed when you change to the setting.
When I change the setting to Manual mode, it gives me the option of adjusting the shutter speed, but how do I move across to change the aperture whilst still in manual mode ?
Thank You.
How do I adjust both aperture and shutter speed on Canon's 1000D Manual mode?
Hold down the %26lt;Av+/-%26gt; button while spinning the dial.
Its located on the back of the camera at the lower right corner of the viewfinder eyepiece
How do I adjust both aperture and shutter speed on Canon's 1000D Manual mode?
The above is correct. I own a 1000D and adjust it all the time.
What's also very handy is setting manual in a certain way that works best in certain situation. For example I'm finding that my camera likes to jump to 1/60 second when I'm using flash. So I've set my manual at 1/200 and f/5.5. When I'm going to do flash work I just turn the dial and the settings are right were I left them... so flash becomes very easy.
I use the %26quot;P%26quot; mode all the time because it allows me to set my focal points to center only. I've found that 7 points don't really work for me because so much of the time my center of interest isn't the closest thing to the camera... so I've set it up that way. On the P mode all the general functions, focus, aperture, shutter speed are still automatic but the single focal point really works very well as does manual with flash.
The more you do with this camera the more you'll like it.

does anyone know how to change the shutter speed on this camera it is so slow it takes a good 5 to 8 sec to take another picture
Changing the shutter speed on a nikon coolpix s570?
Shutter lag is what you are describing. This link may help you some
http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/shutter-鈥?/a>
The shutter speed is determined by the cameras programing ... you have no control
Changing the shutter speed on a nikon coolpix s570?
%26gt; try shooting in brighter lighting conditions, low light conditions take longer for the camera to absorb all of the light.
%26gt; try using flash if you can't increase the light another way and need a quick picture.
%26gt; try increasing the ISO if you can but beware the image quality decreases because as the ISO increases so does the noise [noise = grainy, which sucks]
Because your camera is a point and shoot your options are limited.

I would like to add to what our Princess' answered (which is actually correct), with that long exposure it is impossible that you can get a good picture, only by a handhold. I suggest that it is necessary to use a tripod and set it to higher ISO.
How to i change the shutter's speed on my camera?
You have a point and shoot with little to no manual features. You pretty much have no control over your camera. You can't choose how long or short you want the shutter speed to be.

Canon 50D shutter button speed question?
How do I change the shutter speed for the new Canon 50D? On automatic it is at 1/60 right now. But when I go to TV mode, it can go much higher than that. How do I change the shutter speed on my automatic shooting? It seems as though all my pictures are a little blurry, and not up to great picture quality. How can I make it better?
Thanks!
Canon 50D shutter button speed question?
In Auto mode, you have no control of the camera/ lens at all. Everything choose itself. You have no say. If you want to get a good enough shutter speed, go to the TV mode, and choose a Focal length reciprocal to the focal length of the lens. For example, if you have a 200mm lens, you'll need at least a 1/200 Speed. If you're in Dim light, this could easily be impossible. I suggest, you use the M mode, and get complete control of the camera/lens. Auto mode doesn't make the right choices, and the Av and Tv modes aren't Good enough for me.
Try using the flash, but you can't change the Shutter speed in the Automatic mode, in TV if you choose a higher shutter speed that what it appropriate, you'll get a dark image ( over exposed ) Just because the number can go up and up, doesn't mean it'll work. You have a lot to learn aaboutthe Canon 50d.
Canon 50D shutter button speed question?
First of all nice purchase... I really want one of those to upgrade from my xti. To increase shutter speed its either the big wheel on the back or the smaller one up near the shutter button. A good idea for these types of questions is the owners manual, many people underestimate it. Good luck and have fun with the new camera!
Oh dear. It seems you have purchased more camera than your photo skills can handle.
You may find taking a class in photography will reduce your frustration a lot.
Using a DSLR in its %26quot;Program mode%26quot; is not going to give you the same results a P%26amp;S camera does. Your fine camera is totally adjustable and until you know how and when to use various shutter speeds and apertures (as well as ISO and white balance settings), you may find the 50D overwhelming.
Go to your library an look for the book, %26quot;50 Fast Digital Camera Techniques%26quot; by Kevin L. Moss. It has a lot of good skills you can learn until you can take a class or two in photography
I don't mean to be mean,but you have a LOT to learn if you don't know the answer to that question.
You have a fantastic camera, now quickly get out a whole bunch of books on photography so you that you'll be able to make the most out of your equipment.
You will be glad you did - no more blurry photos for you in the future.

Canon S3 IS -- changing shutter speeds and aperture value? umm...i'm a beginner?
I know that on Tv mode [shutter speed priority] you can change the shutter speed [ps; what setting would be a faster speed?] and on Av [aperture priority] you can change the f/stop. Are there any other functions [P, perhaps] that these settings can be changed?
Hmm, also, I would like to know how to take a picture where the background is blurry and the subject is focused -- can someone explain that to me?
Suggested links/book reads are appreciated.
Canon S3 IS -- changing shutter speeds and aperture value? umm...i'm a beginner?
OMG. Were do I start? For the burry background and in focus subject. Set the aperture to a small number (the smaller the number the larger the aperture, the number is actually the ratio of how many circles the size of the aperture it is from the lens to the focal plane) and set the shutter speed to the correct exposure. The larger the aperture (smaller number) the shallower your field of focus, a portrait with fuzzy background. The smaller the aperture the greater the field of focus, like in a landscape photo. Use the M setting just remember to used the light meter. For trickier shot like a bright background or sunlight thru a window meter off a Gray card (all meters read 18% medium gray so you buy a large piece of cardboard that is 18% med gray and set your exposure off that card).
Canon S3 IS -- changing shutter speeds and aperture value? umm...i'm a beginner?
remember this before photographing anything. a BIG aperture is actually referring to a small number ie f/2.8,f/4.0etc. a SMALL aperture means a bigger number ie f/22,f/16,f/8 etc.
so to photograph a flower for instance on macro shot, set your aperture at f/2.8 and you will get a blurry background. set it to f/8 and up you will have varying degrees of sharpness of the background. practice practice practice.
i'm not sure about the canon, but to change most digital apertures, you turn the dial to A and half depress your shutter button and turn your front dial (should be in front of shutter button) until f/2.8 for example comes up on your screen. hope this helps, your manual will tell you where things are on your camera, or type in on your search engine, aperture, there are some great sites that simplify things.
Hmm, also, I would like to know how to take a picture where the background is blurry and the subject is focused -- can someone explain that to me?
Suggested links/book reads are appreciated.

Nikon d5000 doubt regarding shutter speed?
how to change the shutter speed in Nikon d5000 to 1/4000 . the maximum i get is 1 / 200 . anyways to change it ?
Nikon d5000 doubt regarding shutter speed?
What kind of lighting are you shooting in when attempting to use 1/4000th second. In bright sun, ISO 200, 1/4000th second at about f/4 or so, is possible.
If you are shooting in any less light, you should know that 1/4000th second is NOT possible, not enough light to support such a shutter speed.
You will need to use the camera in the manual mode and then using the cameras light meter, pick the correct aperture.
My guess is you have the camera set to program or some other auto metering mode

Exposure/shutter speed?
Okay, I have a Sony dsc-s980. It retails for about $200-250. I have been trying to find out how to change the shutter speed? Is it possible that you can't manually change the speed? If not, how do you do it? If not, is there A way to trick or manipulate the camera to do it yourself? Thanks much!
Exposure/shutter speed?
Okay, google tells me that that camera has ISO's of:
Auto ISO, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, ISO 1600, ISO 3200
The higher the ISO number, the higher the exposure of your images, and apparently you can adjust that manually.
However, as a point and shoot camera it has extremely limited manual modes, so you won't be able to change shutter speed.
The best you'll be able to do is post process your images with photoshop or the like.
Exposure/shutter speed?
You have a P%26amp;S camera that decides everything for the user. Some of them have a mode that allows an advanced user to choose aperture or shutter speed modes, but the S980 is not one of them
You will have to use some of the preset exposure modes to fool the camera.
Ok the first obvious answer would be %26quot;What does the manual say?%26quot;
But then I went to the trouble to check out your manual, and I sadly have to say that it does not seem that Sony intend for you to change the shutter speed, or even the aperture. Looks like the only way to get by is to increase / decrease the ISO sensitivity. Not the way to do photography...
Ok, that means that you have a snappy picture camera. What you would want is a photography camera. Never thought phototgraphy would come to this. :(caught by your spouse software

How do I change the default shutter speed that will force the Nikon D50 to select a higher ASA ratings?
Your question doesn't make sense to me. If you want a higher ASA (or ISO, same thing), setting, go into the menu and raise the setting. All other things being equal, you'll then get a higher shutter speed.
How do I change the default shutter speed that will force the Nikon D50 to select a higher ASA ratings?
Check the index of your manual for AUTO ISO. I know the D50 has this feature.
How do I change the default shutter speed that will force the Nikon D50 to select a higher ASA ratings?
Try using Shutter priority (S mode). This will put you in control of the shutter speed (set manually) and the rest will be set automatically (including the ISO)

i have a z1015 IS kodak. i know they can change i kind of know how.
i just don't get the differences and what the ISO does and eveyrthing, it's for a project where i have to take 3 pictures with 3 different shutter speeds. and 3 with 3 different apertures.
please help.

How do you change the Aperture and Shutter speed settings on my camera?
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Ko鈥?/a>
According to the review information at the above website, you camera has shutter and aperture priority and you can also change ISO.
ISO is how sensitive you want the sensor to be. It is like turning up the volume on a stereo receiver. The higher the volume, the more background noise you hear with no music playing. The higher the ISO the more sensitive the sensor is to light, but the more noise or grainyness in the photograph.
If you set your camera to shutter priority, then you can change your shutter speed to the 3 different settings. The camera will automatically change the aperature for correct exposure. So you get 3 different shutter speeds, with 3 different aperatures.
It helps to read the manual.

Make my Canon Rebel shutter speed way slower?
I'm making some light graffiti pictures but I want to change the shutter speed to be AT LEAST 10 seconds or slower. How [if I can] do I make it that slow?
Make my Canon Rebel shutter speed way slower?
I've never used the Rebel, so I'm not sure it has Fully Manual mode- but if it does, you want to look for a BULB or B setting. This should allow you to leave your shutter open for as long as you need- you would click the release once to open the shutter, and once to close it. Keep in mind that you need to be locked down on a tripod, and go easy on the button because you can shake the camera (see if you can find an electronic cable release for your camera).
If it doesn't have a bulb setting, try disabling the flash, go to night mode, and choose the mode for bracketing exposures. You will have to do your graffiti three times, but you might get lucky with one of the brackets:)
Hope this works- have fun!

I have a Canon SD850 IS. Does anyone know how to change the shutter speed?
I don't own that exact camera but a similar model from the same Canon line. I don't think you can set it explicitly because it is automatic. You can definitely influence it though. The sport mode is a faster shutter mode. The ISO setting can be explicitly set and the higher ISO speeds will drive up the shutter speeds. You can set the speed explicity on the long-exposures but that's probably not the normal shooting situation you care about. Another thing you can do is under/over expose a shot to tweek the shutter speed. Once you take a picture, it tells you what speed was used. Then you can adjust the exposure slightly to nudge the shutter speed in one direction or the other.

How to change the shutter speed of a Sony DSC-H10 cyber-shot?
I've looked online and all that, and I've tried what they say in the manual {Go to Manual on the wheel, then press the center button, and play around with the up+down arrows} and it doesn't work. I don't think that I've changed the %26quot;advanced%26quot; settings, but... stuff. Please help me out.
[Edit]
the shutter speed i a tad slower when I use flash. Not too much slower, though.
How to change the shutter speed of a Sony DSC-H10 cyber-shot?
You can't. That's a point-and-shoot camera. No direct controls for the shutter speed. You can try increasing ISO to force the camera to use faster speeds but you lose on picture quality. The only real way to ensure fast shutter speeds is to give the camera lots of good light to work on.
How to change the shutter speed of a Sony DSC-H10 cyber-shot?
You are doing this correctly. The Aperture and shutter speed should be shown at the bottom of the display, if not try pressing the %26quot;DISP%26quot; button until it is. You'll need to keep an eye on the light reading though. If it really won't change you can go into the menus and reset everything to their defaults and then try. There are occasions when changing what appears to be an unrelated setting will prevent another setting from kicking in (not just a Sony issue, my Canon does this too).

How to change the shutter speed on a canon power shot sd880?
I'm going to a concert on Thursday and I've been told that it's best to have a high ISO and a fast shutter speed. does the shutter speed on a canon sd880 get any faster than 1%26quot;? their website says it can be set up to 1/1600. I can't figure out how to set it to that. does anybody know how to set the shutter speed at 1/1600 on a canon powershot!? I looked in the user guide but it might as well have been written for babies... there's nothing about shutter speed in it. THANKS. if you have any more tips on settings to use for concert photography, that would be awesome:)
How to change the shutter speed on a canon power shot sd880?
You would NEVER want to use 1/1600 sec in a low light situation, because it's too fast a shutter speed and ALL of your images would be a blurred mess.
The SD880 IS is a point %26amp; shoot (fully automatic) camera, so you cannot set your preferred shutter speed other than a long shutter/exposure of between 1 and 15 seconds (1%26quot;-15%26quot;). And for that, you would need to mount your camera on a tripod.
The camera's fastest capable shutter speed is 1/1600 sec, however, you cannot set it manually. The camera would use such a fast shutter speed in a very bright outdoor situation (the more light there is outdoors, the faster the shutter speed the camera will select). Using the 'Kids %26amp; Pets' scene mode outdoors in good light would also apply a fast shutter speed.
Generally, in lower light you need to use a higher ISO (800, 1600 and higher) in order to get a fast enough handholdable shutter speed to prevent blur. Unfortunately, because your camera has a very small image sensor, means it has VERY poor ISO capability, with ISO 200-400 being the max you would ever want to use (though you will still have plenty of noise at these low ISOs).
You also need to use a very fast lens (one with a wide open aperture) in order to use a faster shutter speed with your higher ISO. The trouble with your compact camera is it's equally tiny and inadequate lens...the more you zoom in, the smaller the aperture becomes...the slower your lens becomes.
So, due to your camera's limitations...your success will be very limited. But, maybe you could try the 'Night Snapshot' scene mode (page 54 of your User Guide) if you can get close to the stage. Though I would expect your image noise levels to be very high.
good luck...
How to change the shutter speed on a canon power shot sd880?
This being a small compact you can't - it's all automatic.
First.. 1/1600 means exactly that.. 1/1600 of a second (notice that it's a fraction; it's pretty fast). 1%26quot; means one second. Your camera's shutter speed can go from 15%26quot;-1/1600.
You can't manually adjust it but you can try using the scene modes. Read about them in your owner's manual.
Edit: Use the PDF version of the owner's manual below - it's a lot easier to find what you're looking for by using the %26quot;Find%26quot; search.

How do i change the shutter speed in a nikon d40?
You turn mode dial on the top of the camera to S for shutter priority then turn the command dial to get the shutter speed you want. Or you can put the mode dial on M for manual and turn the shutter speed to what you want even B for bulb which will keep it open as long as you want then set the aperature by pressing the +/- button and turning the command dial to change the shutter speed. You can also do this on bulb with slow sync flash and get both the writing and the person doing it exposed.
If you are looking for a good book on your camera there is the magic lantern series and wiley makes a field guide for it. Another good place to start learning the camera would be the digitudor on nikon-usa

My digital camera is a Fuji FinePix F40fd. it is a compact camera with 8.3 MP I don't know too much about cameras but i love taking pictures but i am having trouble finding how to change the shutter speed - it doesn't seem to be on any of the menus . i know it is supposed to have changeable shutter speeds, anyone who has this camera or with a knowledge of camera jargon that may help me, please help, you will be rewarded with ten lovely points =D
Thanks in advance....
How Can I Change the Shutter Speed on my Camera? -Ten Points Will be Awarded for a correct answer!?
You need to have it on the 'manual' mode first if it has it.... if not, usually the only way you can change the exposure is with en 'exposure compenstaion' or aka 'EV shift' and it is usually only one stop up or down.It looks like theres a little camera icon with an 'M' that might be manual... then press up, down, or side to side maybe? Its hard to diag over the net lol
On the night shot midway down the page-----
%26quot;Since there's no way to control the shutter speed, you'll need to use a scene mode to take photos like the night shot you see above.%26quot;

Its hard to diag over the net lol

%26quot;Since there's no way to control the shutter speed, you'll need to use a scene mode to take photos like the night shot you see above.%26quot;
How to change the Shutter Speed on a Sony Handycam DCR-HC28?
Ok, i am into shooting downhill and freeride mountain biking, just me and my friends playin' in the woods. I looked at a video on Youtube and it had amazing quality for the camera, so i asked how he got it like that. He said he set his camera to the max shutter speed. What i am looking for is how to change the shutter speed on my camera, there must be a way because the minimum is 1/60 second and the maximum is 1/4000 second. Thanks for any help.
How to change the Shutter Speed on a Sony Handycam DCR-HC28?
Did you read the camcorder's Operating Guide?
http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-d鈥?/a>
See page 42. When it is on in video capture mode, select the MENU. Select the %26quot;MANUAL SET%26quot; item. Select %26quot;AUTO SHUTTER%26quot;. Turn it off - and you can select the shutter speed.
The faster the shutter speed, the less light gets in to the imaging chip. Chances are good that if you set it at 1/4000, there will not be enough light. 1/1000 or so should be fine when it is good daylight.

How do I change the shutter speed on my Canon 400D?
I麓m currently on holiday in tenerife
I want to change the shutter speed and take some pics of water to make it look misty
However, after fiddling around (I really should have read the instrustion manual) i cant seem to find the way to change the shutter speed.
I found one way, I have no idea if its right or not, when i go onto one of the manual modes and press down it lets me select the type of light available.
However, Whenever i choose one that gives me the slow shutter speed it always over exposes the picture and i end up with a bright light. Even if i set it to Cloudy, which the weather is, It overexposes it.
Please help me, i麓m only here for a couple more days and i wouldnt mind havin a play about with it.
Thanks in advance

How do I change the shutter speed on my Canon 400D?
1. Use a tripod or somehow have your camera steady (like resting it on a table). The camera has to be absolutely rock still.
2. Set your camera to %26quot;S%26quot; or as sometimes labeled %26quot;Tv%26quot; (which stands for Time value or shutter speed).
--In Tv or S, you set the shutter speed and the camera sets the aperture (lens opening).
3. Use a moderate ISO like ISO 400, which will force the camera to select an aperture to give you more area in focus (called depth of field). If it's really bright out, you might have to select ISO 100, but for a cloudy day, ISO 400 should be fine.
4. Now, you adjust the shutter speed. Just use the dial behind the shutter release button. Select a speed like 1/15 of a second or even slower, which should give you the misty effect your want without overexposing.
5. IN Manual: You can't simply manually choose a shutter speed without adjusting the aperture to compensate. If you manually expose, you have to select a smaller aperture (a bigger number like f/16 or f/22) to compensate for the longer exposure to light. Hence, using an automatic mode like Tv (shutter preferred) allows you to pick the shutter speed and the camera to make the aperture selection for you.
How do I change the shutter speed on my Canon 400D?
Simple! Just use the dial near the shutter button! Get into a normal shooting mode (or any mode of your choice), spin the dial using your index and you will see changes of the shutter speed, on the LCD. (e.g. 1/50, 1/250, 1/4000, etc.)
Spin dial to the left: slowest speed, more exposure
Spin dial to the right: fastest speed, less exposure
Taking %26quot;foggy%26quot; river shots is fun to do but you need a little more than just a camera and shutter speed settings. You probably already know this part but you need a tripod to keep it steady. But unless taken at dusk, you will need a neutral density filter. This will cut down on light so you don't get over exposed pics. And even then you have to try a few times till you get the right exposure length. To change the shutter speed, the camera should be in %26quot;M%26quot; (manual mode) or %26quot;S%26quot; (shutter priority mode). Only then can you change the speed of the shutter. Usually you have to hold one button down and then turn one of the dials. If not it is just turning the dials. I fix professional cameras as my profession and it's been a about a month since i have worked on a digital Canon so the info is a little vague, sorry. I hope that helped :)
I will make this as simple as possible.
1.Set your camera up on a tripod.
2.Turn the dial to manual
3. Press and hold the av button (top right side) and turn the dial to the max F stop (about F22)
4. Let go of the AV button and turn the dial down until your light meter is in the middle. Your light meter is the green lights that you see on the bottom when you look through the viewfinder.
5.Now release the shutter.
You might need to play around with this to get the exact effect your looking for but this should get you started.
Just put the camera in manual mode (M) and roll the main dial (just above the shutter button) to the left.

I have a Fuji Finepix S9500 and im having a hard time changing the shutter speed or anything for that matter! i have turned the first dial closest to the left hand side of the camera to %26quot;S%26quot; (s stands for shutter) and then i have turned the second dial closest to the right hand side of the camera. i was told this is how to change the shutter speed and it seems to do nothing, nothing appears and the shutter speed is no different. i asked my dad for the info booklet that it come with and he is being rather annoying he keeps saying hes lost it. i am wanting to do equine (horse) photography and when a horse is moving at high speed i need a faster shutter speed. i do know what i am doing with cameras and the finepix s9500 is one of my two cameras i use. my other camera is a nikon d700 digital slr and even though i know its a different camera all together i have no problem doing anything on my nikon. also i have trouble making my finepix camera take multiple photos at one time. i have forgotten what its called but i followed what my dad told me to do and it doesn't work. i have tried to figure it out myself and im getting no where at all. please help im dying to know if i am doing something wrong or if the camera has a fault.

How to change the shutter speed on the olympus sp-510uz?
When in manual mode, hit the %26quot;up%26quot; button on your control circle. This will allow you to change shutter speed and aperture. Two blue boxes will appear in the upper-right hand corner of the screen, one will display aperture numbers (2.8 - 8.0) and the other will display shutter speed. You can alter the shutter speed using the left and right buttons on your control circle.
Hope this helps, I have an sp-510uz but I don't have it with me right now. Let me know if you need anything else.

How to change aperture and shutter speed on my canon powershot camera?
It did come with a manual? If not you can find it on-line at Canon.co.uk
I don't have mine beside me but i'll tell you what I can from memory.
I dont think you can change aperture, I tried for a long time and read the manual, the best you can do is change it to a specific setting or change your iso. shutter speed can only go longer, you can't make it go any faster then i think a second or .5 of a second. Some setting might make it go faster (like action shot setting etc). Iso is going to be your best friend for this camera, and the iso goes lower than my reble does :D
to do that hit the button left of the center button and scroll along the menu that pops up on the left hand side using the up and down buttons.
Goodluck!

How do i set the shutter speed on my Nikon d80?
Hi all i need in very basic terms to know how i change the shutter speed on my camera, i plan on taking night shots and don't have a clue about shutter speed. I will be using a tripod but could anyone suggest settings i can use.
I really do need it to be explained as simple as possible please
How do i set the shutter speed on my Nikon d80?
If you don't have a copy of the Owner's Manual you should get one. If you do have it, it will explain how to change the shutter speed. You can download a copy at the Nikon website. http://www.nikonusa.com
Since your camera has a shutter speed range from 30 seconds to 1/4000 sec. in many situations you won't need to use the %26quot;B%26quot; (Bulb) setting. Bulb allows you to leave the shutter open as long as the battery lasts. Even if you never exceed a 30 second exposure you'll want to have your camera in Manual since you'll be controlling both aperture and shutter speed.
I use this site for night exposures: http://www.calculator.org/exposure.aspx Just choose a Scene, an ISO and then click on Calculate to get a list of f-stop/shutter speed combinations. I chose 'City skyline in distance', ISO 200 and from the Calculator f11 @ 30 seconds for these:

How do i set the shutter speed on my Nikon d80?
On my d50 i do it like this: twist the knob on the right to A. then on the left, just next to the on/off/shutter there is a button with a white and black, diagonally split square, with a plus and minus in each section, press and hold this, then spin the spinner below, on the edge facing you (the one with the screen). Spin it left and right. Do some tests, read the manual
Have you actually thought to READ THE MANUAL.
Then go and buy a book on basic photography.
Read them both.
It is impossible for anyone to tell you what settings to use without knowing the exact circumstances and what sort of %26quot;night shots%26quot; you actually want to get.

How to i change the shutter's speed on my camera?
i have a Nikon coolpix l5 digital camera and i just started looking at all the light graffiti that everyone has been making and i wanted to try it. They said to have the shutter's speed from 5-30 seconds but i can't find any option to change that. Does anyone know if i can? also if anyone knows any good cameras that are good for these kind of pictures that would be nice to know too. okay thanks
How to i change the shutter's speed on my camera?
You cannot manually change your camera's shutter speed or aperture (it's a basic point %26amp; shoot and not a particularly good one, at that).
The minimum shutter speed your camera can do is only 4 seconds. You will have to maybe select the Fireworks Show or Night Landscape setting, which is in the Scene modes The camera should apply a slower shutter speed. The camera needs to be mounted on a tripod with a delayed shutter release to minimise camera shake...but the odds of you being successful are slim.
Check pages 32-37 of your User's Manual for an explanation of all Scene settings.
For a better camera, look for one which has FULL manual controls (aperture %26amp; shutter priority modes). Many compact cameras allow a minimum shutter of between 15-30 seconds, and some even go up to 60 seconds. Some allow only a few seconds...so you need to fully check the camera's specs. before you buy it.
good luck...
How to i change the shutter's speed on my camera?
You can't, your camera is auto only.
You could try to force it to hold the shutter open for a few seconds by being in a totally dark room, and disabling the flash.

How to change shutter speeds on the Nikon D80?
I'm pretty new to photography, and this camera was recommended to me. I figured I'd learn as I went along, so it's fine.. I can't work out how to change the shutter speeds properly, though
I've looked in the manual, and there was a little bit, with a picture saying something like %26quot;flash shutter speed%26quot;, but I can't find that..? Sorry for asking what's probably a stupid question. xD
However, I've found this:
Custom Setting Menu %26gt; ISO auto %26gt; Min. Shutter speed, and I can pick from 1/125 s, to 1 s. Is that all there is, or am I on the wrong thing altogether? Thanks in advance.
How to change shutter speeds on the Nikon D80?
Read your manual from page 45 to 51, especially page 48.
This is one real plus of a digital SLR over a point and shoot camera. You don't have to use the menus to change the shutter speed.
%26quot;S%26quot; Mode - you can change the shutter speed from a full 30 seconds to 1/4,000 of a second by turning the rear command dial with your thumb. Any speed of one second or longer will have the %26quot; mark after it, so 4%26quot; means 4 seconds.
%26quot;M%26quot; Mode - Same thing... The only difference is that the camera will not change the aperture automatically and you will have to do that yourself with the front sub-command dial.
%26quot;P%26quot; Mode - Yes, you can change the shutter speed in %26quot;P%26quot; mode. This is then called %26quot;Flexible Program.%26quot; Suppose the camera tells you that the right exposure in %26quot;P%26quot; mode would be f/8 at 1/15, but you want to use a faster or slower shutter speed. If you rotate the rear command dial, you can increase or decrease the shutter speed and the camera will adjust the aperture up or down accordingly. Of course, you can do the exact same thing if you want a larger or smaller aperture and the camera will adjust the shutter speed up or down accordingly.
So if the suggested %26quot;P%26quot; mode exposure is f/8 at 1/15, you can move up or down to one of these:
f/16 @ 1/4
f/11 @ 1/8
f/8 @ 1/15
f/5.6 @ 1/30
f/4 @ 1/60
f/2.8 @125
and the exposure will be the same. It's up to you to decide whether you want a faster shutter or a smaller aperture and go for it.
The setting you have found is a handy one, but it's not what you are looking for. If you want to use Auto ISO, the camera will choose the best (generally the lowest) ISO for you, but suppose conditions were such that an ISO of 100 would give you a shutter speed of 1/8 second. If you didn't have any warning about this (because you didn't set the shutter speed yourself, but relied on an automatic setting), you would most likely get a blurry image. If you use the CSM%26gt;ISO%26gt;Min Shutter Speed menu to set something that you are generally comfortable hand-holding, like 1/60 for normal lenses, you won't risk a blurry picture. In this case, the camera would bump up the ISO to a sufficient degree (in this example ISO 800) to allow the minimum speed you have set.
How to change shutter speeds on the Nikon D80?
On the top left of your camera there should be a wheel that has different markings like %26quot;A%26quot; (aperture-priority), %26quot;M%26quot; (Manual), etc. And little icons like a tulip for macro mode. Turn that to %26quot;M%26quot; for manual. On the right side, on the front, is a little wheel you turn with your index finger. Look through the viewfinder, see the number on the far left. Turn the front wheel with your index finger and you'll see the number changing. That's the shutter speed. I don't use the custom setting menu. I have a D70s but it should be quite similar to yours.
You do not set the shutter speed using the menu .. it would be far to slow for any photographer, let alone a pro.
Turn the wheel on the left side on top of the camera to either the A (aperture priority) or S (shutter priority) . Now turn the thumb wheel and you will see either the f/stop or shutter speed numbers change.
Since you seem to have no experience with a fully adjustable camera, you may find taking a class will help you a lot. Community colleges have classes both by the semester and at night and on weekends under adult ed. Also look for classes given by local camera stores.
Leave the custom settings alone for now.
To get started shooting without having to know how to use your camera the way you would use your 35 mm SLR, then place the camera in the P mode (program) and let the camera, for now, pick the exposure settings.
Here is a link that will help you understand your camera much better.

In this case, the camera would bump up the ISO to a sufficient degree (in this example ISO 800) to allow the minimum speed you have set.
How to change shutter speeds on the Nikon D80?
On the top left of your camera there should be a wheel that has different markings like %26quot;A%26quot; (aperture-priority), %26quot;M%26quot; (Manual), etc. And little icons like a tulip for macro mode. Turn that to %26quot;M%26quot; for manual. On the right side, on the front, is a little wheel you turn with your index finger. Look through the viewfinder, see the number on the far left. Turn the front wheel with your index finger and you'll see the number changing. That's the shutter speed. I don't use the custom setting menu. I have a D70s but it should be quite similar to yours.
You do not set the shutter speed using the menu .. it would be far to slow for any photographer, let alone a pro.
Turn the wheel on the left side on top of the camera to either the A (aperture priority) or S (shutter priority) . Now turn the thumb wheel and you will see either the f/stop or shutter speed numbers change.
Since you seem to have no experience with a fully adjustable camera, you may find taking a class will help you a lot. Community colleges have classes both by the semester and at night and on weekends under adult ed. Also look for classes given by local camera stores.
Leave the custom settings alone for now.
To get started shooting without having to know how to use your camera the way you would use your 35 mm SLR, then place the camera in the P mode (program) and let the camera, for now, pick the exposure settings.
Here is a link that will help you understand your camera much better.

Samsung sl 202 Shutter Speed, LIGHT PAINTING 2?
As far as I know compact cameras don't have that kind of control - no shutter settings, no bulb.
For that you need a high end P%26amp;S or an SLR.

Wanting to change the shutter speed on my Samsung Digimax L60?
i've checked the manual and it talks about pressing the +/- button and some menu should appear or something. but when I do that, nothing happens. How do I change the shuttr speed?
Wanting to change the shutter speed on my Samsung Digimax L60?
The +/- is to increase or decrease something, Shutter speed, Aperture, ISO...
Turn the command dial to S mode, that is Shutter priority, then set your shutter speed.
Wanting to change the shutter speed on my Samsung Digimax L60?
Your camera does not have full manual control, which means you cannot manually change the shutter speed or aperture value. The shutter speed is completely up to the camera to decide. It basically decides this by the amount of light that is available.
The +/- button is for exposure compensation, not shutter speed. However, adjusting it can force the camera to use a different aperture %26amp; shutter speed .
Adjusting the ISO will also get the camera to adjust the shutter speed.
To make all of the above adjustments you will have to use 'Program AE' mode.
And using the various Scene modes will also apply a different shutter speed according to the lighting conditions %26amp; aperture it applies.
However, as I said before, you cannot manually set a specific shutter speed of your choice.

Changing the Shutter Speed on my Canon Powershot SD870IS Digital Elph?
I know that the shutter speed for the Powershot goes up to 15 seconds, but I have no idea where to locate it, or how to change it. Any ideas?
Changing the Shutter Speed on my Canon Powershot SD870IS Digital Elph?
Yes, your User Guide has all the answers...you only have a 'Long Shutter Mode' option that allows you to set the shutter speed between 1 and 15 seconds...but, it's not in the Index of your User Guide. So, you need to have a look at the Functions Chart that's at the back of the Guide. It's the second item on the list and will direct you to page 109.
To access Long Shutter Mode, you first need to turn your mode dial to M, then press the FUNC. SET button, then use the up/down arrows to select +/-0, then press the DISP...then use the sideways arrows to adjust the shutter speed, then press FUNC.SET again.
You would of course need to mount your camera on a tripod for long exposures.
