Determines the amount of time that the film or electronic photo receptor is exposed to light from the scene. Selected to give correct exposure so as to give a balanced negative or electronic image. Fast shutter speed to give a short exposure in a bright daylight setting and slow shutter speed or long exposure in indoor dull conditions. Note that a long exposure might lead to blurring of a moving subject or where the camera is hand held.
The amount of time that the actual shutter allows light onto the image sensor.
he length of time the "shutter" is open and allows light into the sensor or CCD.
The length of time that the shutter remains open, thereby exposing the negative.
The camera's shutter opens and closes when you take a shot, allowing light to hit the film or image sensor. Shutter speed refers to the amount of time the shutter stays open and is measured in fractions of a second. A very fast shutter speed can capture clear images of fast action, like horse races, while slow shutter speeds are better suited to shots of static subjects like sunsets or city lights.
The time that a camera’s shutter stays open. Expressed in fractions of a second. The higher the shutter speed, the shorter the time the shutter stays open
A measurement of how long the camera's shutter remains open as a picture is taken. The slower the shutter speed the longer the exposure time.
An indication of how quickly the shutter of the camera opens and closes. Slow shutter speeds are used in low-light conditions and faster shutter speeds are used in bright conditions. In automatic mode many cameras will adjust the shutter speed automatically. When attached to a spotting scope it may be beneficial to adjust the shutter speed manually.
The shutter speed is how quickly the small "door" in the camera opens and closes to let in light and capture the image. Faster speeds allow you to freeze action in good light. Slower speeds let you mount the camera on a tripod and take pictures in low light. Shutter speed ranges vary from 1/8-1/4000 of a second depending on the camera. No glossary terms available
The actual length of time the shutter is open (or the digital image sensor is activated).
Shutter speed is a term which refers to the length of time your cameraâ€(tm)s shutter is open. As the shutter opens and closes to expose your film, the shutter speed measures in seconds the length that light is reaching your film. Obviously, the longer the shutter speed, the more light you are letting in. Very fast shutter speeds will allow you to stop action, but require a great deal of light.
The length of time in which it takes the camera's shutter to open an close. The faster the shutter speed the crisper the picture. Fast shutter speeds minimize camera shake and subject movement. Slower shutter speeds create a blurring effect and may be needed to correctly expose darker subjects.
The shutter is a mechanical system used to control the time that light is allowed on a sensitive emulsion.
Exposure time in fraction of a second at any given shutter setting. The higher the shutter speed, the shorter the exposure time. High shutter speeds are necessary to get sharp pictures of fast moving subjects.
is time the shutter is open during exposure. A typical combination for many landscape photographers might be a shutter speed of 1/60 of a second and an f-stop of f/16, assuming one has a reasonably bright day and an ISO of 100-200. The standard sequence of shutter speeds for both digital and film cameras is 1 (second), 2 (one-half second), 4 (one-fourth second), 8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, 1000, ..., where 60 represents 1/60 of a second, 125 represents 1/125 second, etc.
The shutter speed controls length of time light is allowed to reach the film.
How long the shutter remains open as the picture is taken. The slower the shutter speed, the longer the exposure time. When the shutter speed is set to 1/60 (60 on adjustment dials or in viewfinder/LCD displays), the shutter will be open for exactly 1/60th of a second. The shutter speed and aperture together control the total amount of light reaching the sensor.
A camcorder's shutter regulates the amount of light that passes through the lens to the CCD. Shutter speed is measured in fractions of a second. The higher the speed (and smaller the fraction), the better a camcorder will be at recording high-speed action (such as sports). Shutter speed is typically handled automatically, but some camcorders enable you to manually override the settings.
is the duration of time that the shutter is held open during an exposure. The typical range is from 1 full second to 1/1000 of a second.
Measured in rotations per second, the number is specifies the rotating speed of the camera shutter, or in the case of digital video cameras, how quickly the CCD recognizes a new sample of light.
Controls the amount of time that light is allowed to pass into the camera through the shutter, which opens and closes like a window.
The amount of time a digital cameras sensor is exposed to light. Short [quick] shutter speeds, measured in hundreds or thousands of a second are possible in bright light, can 'freeze' motion, and prevent 'camera shake'. Long [slow] shutter speeds are measured in tenths or even whole seconds, and are used in poor light or night-time shots, where a tripod [camera support] is needed to prevent 'camera shake' and a blurry shot.
The amount of time that it takes for a shutter to open and light to strike on it's image sensor.
The speed in which light is let into the camera. For example, darker situations require a lower shutter speed to allow more light for the image.
The speed of the rotation of the shutter inside the lens, measured in rotations per second.
The time in which the shutter stays open to light, measured in fractions of seconds, (1/8000th a second is a very fast shutter speed and 1/2 second is very slow).
The length of time the image sensor is exposed to light anywhere from a few seconds (8s, 1s, etc.) to fractions of seconds (1/125, 1/500, etc.). You'll need a fast shutter speed to capture action. Slower shutter speeds (speeds below 1/125s) are more likely to create blurring from either camera shake or subject movement. The combination of shutter speed and aperture create a picture's exposure.
the time the shutter remains open to capture the image
There is no shutter in a camcorder, but is used as a term to define how quickly a frame is exposed/processed by the CCD. The normal speed is 1/60 of a second. This might cause fast moving objects to come out a little blurry. A faster shutter speed can help you catch these faster moving objects. The drawbacks are that less light is let in, and therefore less picture quality. It is a good idea to use this feature only in well lit conditions. For camcorders that support variable shutter speeds, they range from 1/60 to 1/4000 or 1/10000.
The shutter speed is the length of time that the CCD is exposed to light. Shutter speed times range from very short, up to 1/10000 of a second to infinitely long. Small shutter speeds are better for action shots.
When shooting at a Hi Shutter Speed you can record even extremely fast action with outstanding clarity. Blurring is minimized so you can capture detail that would be lost at standard shutter speeds.
The amount of time the shutter remains open
Shutter speed is the amount of time that you leave your shutter open when taking a photograph. Standard shutter speeds are 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, etc.
Length of time that a single frame is exposed for.
The speed at which the camera's shutter opens and closes as the photograph is taken. Shutter speeds are generally measured in fractions of a second, with a one placed over the shutter speed number to form the fraction. For example a shutter speed of 500 is actually 1/500 of a second.
The camera's shutter speed is a measurement of how long its shutter remains open as the picture is taken. The slower the shutter speed, the longer the exposure time. When the shutter speed is set to 1/125 or simply 125, this means that the shutter will be open for exactly 1/125th of one second. The shutter speed and aperture together control the total amount of light reaching the sensor. Some digital cameras have a shutter priority mode that allows you to set the shutter speed to your liking. See also aperture.
The length of time the shutter stays open to allow light onto the film or image sensor.
How long the film or digital sensor, of a camera, is exposed to the light. The faster it is, the less susceptible the camera is to the subject or camera movement (causing blur).
The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds.
Controls the duration of an exposure - the faster the Shutter speed, the shorter the exposure time.
The speed at which a digital camera's shutter exposes the CCD to light. A shutter speed of 1/60 means that a CCD is exposed to light for 1/60th of a second. Faster shutter speeds are good for taking action shots; slow ones may require a tripod, since the human hand cannot hold a camera steady for very long. Simple digital cameras may have very little shutter speed adjustment; more sophisticated cams often have between 9 and 15 shutter speeds. Many cameras also offer shutter speed priority mode.
The length of time the shutter stays open and image sensor is exposed to light. This can range from fraction of a second (1/500, 1/80) to a few seconds (8s).
Control on a camera which regulates the amount of time the film is exposed to light.
In machine vision the shutter speed is the time for which the shutter is held open during the taking an image to allow light to reach the imaging sensor. In combination with variation of the lens aperture, this regulates how much light the imaging sensor in a digital camera will receive.
The amount of time a camera shutter remains open to admit light.
The amount of time the shutter is open.
The length of time the shutter is open and light strikes the image sensor.
In digital photography terminology, shutter speed is slightly different to traditional photography. Traditionally, the shutter opened when you pressed the camera's button, exposed the film behind the shutter, and then closed again; covering the film back over in the process. With electric sensors the "shutter" is controlled by the camera's computer. A short shutter speed means the sensor is charged for a fraction of a second. For longer shutter speeds, the sensor is kept charged for longer. The shutter noise in most compact digital cameras is created by a small speaker in the camera and mimics a real shutter. It has its use - it lets you know when the photo has been taken. Digital SLRs have no need to mimic a shutter as they work with a combination of shutter and electrically controlled sensor.
The time in which the shutter stays open to recieve light, measured in fractions of seconds through to many hours.
The shutter speed sets the length of time of an exposure. A faster shutter speed means a quicker exposure time. A shutter speed of 1/400th of a second is faster than a speed of 1/50th of a second. A faster shutter speed will freeze the action. It is recommended for most sports.
A shutter is a thin curtain that opens and closes to expose your film to light. Faster shutter speeds are useful for freezing action while slower speeds create blur. Digital cameras use a different system that works by turning the electrical supply to the CCD sensor on and off.
The length of time during which the camera shutter remains open. These speeds are expressed in seconds or fractions of a second ex: 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/8000. Each speed increment halves the amount of light.
The length of time the shutter is open, allowing light to enter the camera. Combined with the aperture, the shutter speed controls the exposure of the film or sensor. Shutter speed is usually measured in fractions of a second, such as 1/30s, 1/60s, etc.
The length of time the lens window stays open to let light through to the film.
In photography, shutter speed is the time for which the shutter is held open during the taking of a photograph to allow light to reach the film or (in a digital camera).
