Shutter speed is a fundamental concept in photography and cinematography, referring to the duration for which the camera's shutter remains open, allowing light to reach the camera's sensor or film. It is typically measured in fractions of a second, such as 1/250, 1/500, or 1/1000 of a second. The shutter speed determines the amount of light that reaches the sensor or film, affecting the exposure of the image. Faster shutter speeds freeze motion, making them ideal for capturing fast-moving subjects like sports or wildlife. Slower shutter speeds, on the other hand, allow more light to enter the camera, which can be useful in low-light conditions, but they may also cause motion blur if the subject or camera moves during the exposure. The choice of shutter speed is crucial in achieving the desired effect in a photograph or video.
