How to Control Light-Understanding Your Shutter and Shutter Speed: The Know Your Camera Series

Controlling light seems complex, but the truth is it's as complex or as simple as it's explained to those who are interested in learning and understanding it. Too often, I've found that a 5 minute to 30 minutes explanation can't cut it, and generally, it leaves people lost, confused, and frustrated. 

We're going to take a different path, whether it's all about light, or about aperture or about the exposure triangle, we're going to break down each piece so that you learn the information you need to support your photography. In this episode we're discussing 

• the shutter in your camera
• the shutter speed that affects your exposure, and 
• how to use your shutter and shutter speed to convey sharpness and motion

I've also provided you with a few excellent articles on shutter and shutter speed. 

• Understanding Shutter Speed, Both Slow and Fast
• Introduction to Shutter Speed in Photography
• What is Shutter Speed (And Why it Matters in Photography)

I've also posted some photos on this episode's website so that you can see some really strong examples of the power of manipulating the shutter and shutter speeds.
