Shutter speed

Sequence 01 from abbie on Vimeo.
The shutter speed, control the exposure of camera, the longer the shutter speed e.g 1/30, the more light is allowed in the camera, the shorter the shutter speed time, the less light there is, as there is less time for the light to get into the camera. When the shutter speed is low, the more light can enter the image however without a tripod the image can have movement blurs, as when the shutter speed is low it pick up more movement and too much movement can lead to blurs in the image or video.
This is not the best example of shutter speed, as some of the shots of over exposed like 1/30 of a second. The videos are also out of focus, because i couldn't directly see the camera when shooting the videos came out unfocused. It would be best to re-shoot the videos to get a clearer example of the different shutter speeds in use. The faster shutter speed would best for action sequences with fast movement as the moves would be seen as more precise without movement blurs. Slower camera speeds can be used for scene where there isn't a lot of lighting and the characters aren't moving too much, as the little movements won't create movement blurs and the lower shutter speed will let enough lightning for the shot to be correctly exposed.



This screenshot is 1/30 of a second.The image has more movement blur because of the slower shutter speed. The image is also a lot brighter than the others because more light can get into the image because of more light getting into the image.

 

The image to the right is a screenshot of my video at 1/50 of a second. The is the average shutter speed when filming. As you can see there is less movement blur compared to the 1/30 of a second but there is still slight movement blurs.
This screenshot is of 1/250 of a second, there is a lot less movement blur than the other two shutter speeds, because it is quicker at capturing the the image per frame. However this image is darker as the shutter speed doesn't allow as much light.
