Canon EOS 7D with Canon 300mm f/2.8 L IS, 1/500th, f/2.8, ISO250 The primary duty of shutter speed in automotive photography is to display motion or the lack thereof depending on what you want. A simple rule of thumb is the slower the shutter speed, the more motion you can portray. The downside to this is the slower the shutter speed, the less likely you are to get a sharp shot. There’s no exact rulebook for this as every occasion will be different but if you want to show movement in your shots, start at 1/160th and review your images after a couple of shots. The photographers' choice of shutter speed can have quite a dramatic effect on the end product https://www.speedhunters.com/2013/07/how-to-shoot-cars-shutter-speed/

When photographing people I suggest you use a fast shutter speed to freeze their movement – that’s what I did here. I used 1/200 sec shutter speed to capture this images using a 200mm lens.

When photographing competitive sports, or any high action scenario, you will need to push the shutter speed to a faster exposure time. Many of my favorite action sports shots were taken at 1/500. It’s quick enough to freeze an athlete sprinting down a field without showing any motion blur. As you work with shutter speeds this quick, it’s important to understand how it’s affecting your exposure. Since the actual shutter is only open for a brief duration, it does not allow much light to reach the sensor. The raised ISO along with a wider aperture like f4 will compensate accordingly.

Lightning fast shutter speeds like 1/1000 give us the ability to seemingly pause life. Thanks to advances in technology, you are capturing instances that the human eye wouldn’t catch. I reserve this specific setting for the type of heart pounding action you find at air shows, or in extreme sports. To get a sense of just how fast this is, 1/1000 will freeze the spinning blades of an industrial strength room fan. It will also stop an F18 jet as it zooms past at 500 miles per hour.

for the humming bird, a bird that flys very fast, you would need a fast shutter speed to capture its fast movements clearly. you need a fast shutter speed when you want to freeze motion. If you’re photographing moving subjects, you can use fast shutter speeds to prevent motion blur. When you’re freezing motion with a very fast shutter speed, then it’s called high-speed photography.

EOS 7D Mark II/ EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM / FL: 234mm (374mm equivalent)/ Aperture-priority AE (f/5, 1/8,000 sec, EV±0)/ ISO 200/ WB: Shade. A good way to capture the waves with the "frozen in action" effect is to use Shutter-priority AE mode, which allows you to adjust the shutter speed while your camera automatically adjusts the f-value, to depict the image you are after. One of the principles of shutter speed is that a fast shutter speed helps to freeze action. However, for this shoot, I was also aiming to make the form of the wave splash stand out against the background of beautiful bokeh circles. Therefore,I used Aperture-priority mode, selected f/5 (the smallest f-value I could select in the mode), and shot using the auto-selected shutter speed of 1/8,000 second.

for the little egret (a relatively slow flying bird) I used a shutter speed of 1/3200s with an aperture of f/5.6 (using Manual Mode). The shutter speed is responsible for stopping the motion and the aperture at f/5.6 is to provide sufficient background blur - the out of focus area between the bird and the background.

When you press the button on a camera and hear that distinctive click, you're hearing the sound of the camera's shutter opening and closing in a fraction of a second. The shutter opens to let light through to the film or electronic sensor, and closes again.

Along with camera lenses, ISO level, focus and aperture settings, shutter speed is one of the primary factors in photo quality. And if you alter the length of time the shutter stays open, you can drastically change the kind of image you'll end up with. Fortunately, in this article, we'll explain how you can use shutter speed to capture movement in exciting new ways. https://electronics.howstuffworks.com/cameras-photography/tips/shutter-speed.htm

With a shutter speed of 4-6 seconds, you can capture a gorgeous scene of a crowd in motion, with some people stopped completely, others in partial motion, and the fast-moving people as whisps through the scene. This is only possible to do during the day with a darkening neutral density filter, but it’s ideal to do at night or in any general low-light situation.

Slow shutter is used to create smooth paths of flowing water giving the waterfall photograph a surrealistic texture. Place your camera on a tripod and compose your shot. Setting the shutter speed even as long as 2 seconds will give a nice texture on the surface of the water. Since all the rocks and other flora around the waterfalls remain still, they appear sharp in the picture. However, the light bouncing off the flowing water is continuously moving and this creates a motion blur or shake on the water texture alone giving it a surreal effect.

Waterfall with Fast Shutter by Ber'Zophus on Flickr (licensed CC-BY-SA) - even at 1/2000s you can still see some blur from the water's movement when viewed full size.High speed photography refers to the capture of an event that happens too fast for the human eye to see. Things like a splash of water frozen in mid-air, an egg as it smashes, or an insect in mid-flight.

There is no specific rule as to exactly how short a time period needs to be captured to qualify for high speed speed photography. But in general it would be considered to be an event captured at an effective shutter speed of 1/1000s or faster. In practice, effective shutter speeds of 1/10000s and faster are often used.

A camera is not exactly a device that captures what you see, but rather, one that captures light. To that effect, as long as there is light around, any scene becomes a canvas on which you can paint what you like.

If you’re shooting action sports, you’ll undoubtedly need a fast shutter speed. The precise value depends on the sport, but I recommend working with a shutter speed of at least 1/1000s for fast moving people, and even faster (e.g., 1/2000s) when photographing people on vehicles such as mountain bikes.

If you have a flash that can sync with high speed, that will allow you to freeze even more of the action. If not, you may get a little bit of motion blur from the moving subject. If you don't happen to have a flash capable of high-speed sync, I would push your camera to a shutter speed of 1/250 to 1/400 max.

Some cameras provide a shutter priority mode, in which the camera automatically adjusts aperture after the user sets a shutter time. For Canon, it can be set to Tv while it is the S setting in Nikon cameras. The user can set a very slow shutter speed (around 10 to 30 seconds) to seize as much light as possible and to capture a cool motion blur. Using a tripod in this technique can be a great help. Also, “panning” the scenes can create a dreamy effect, especially in nature scenes such as waterfalls and ocean waves. https://vijayaprakashboggala.wordpress.com/2016/06/22/gone-in-the-blink-of-an-eye-capturing-quick-subjects-with-slow-shutter-speed-photography/
