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.

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
