Shutter Speed

The 3 camera settings that comprise the Exposure Triangle are Aperture, Shutter speed, and IOS.

On the back monitor of our Canon DSLR cameras, the aperture setting is displayed with “F” followed by a number.  

Apertures (from smallest openings to largest openings) are typically numbers f/22, f/16, f/11, f/8, f/5.6, f/4, f/2.8

The shutter speed settings are shown on the back monitor's top LEFT (left or right?). 

Expressed as fractions of a second, the shortest or highest shutter speed on our cameras is seconds and the longest or slowest shutter speed is 30 seconds.

Examples of Shutter speeds (not in order) are 1/1000, 1”, ⅛”. 1/60/ 1/500, 1/4000, 1/125, ½, 1/30,1/2000,1/250, (arrange these in order when you put them in your blog post)

The third setting ISO controls the camera’s sensitivity to light. 

This setting goes from 100, 200, 400, 800, 1,600 on our cameras.

To center the meter on our cameras, we can either  change the aperture, shutter speed, or the iOS
