Camera Controls - Motion Blur

Camera Controls



Main F-stops:
F/2
F/4
F/8
F/16
F/22
F/32
With every increment the camera's sensor becomes smaller and so the shutter speed becomes slower as less light is reaching the sensor.Due to this if we change the F-stop smaller then we must make the shutter speed faster. 

SLR Camera - Single Lens Reflect
The mirror moves down and the aperture opens and the sensor captures the image.







Slow Sync Flash:
Slow sync flash is when a flash is used with a slow shutter speed. It helps you keep your subject sharp while capturing motion or a dark background.

This image is too bright so I changed the F-stop to F/22 and increased the shutter speed to 10", this allows more light to reach the sensor and so balances the lighting.

The lighting in this image is much better as flash has frozen the subject in place and the long exposure has recorded her movement after the initial flash. However, there are lots of dust particles in the air which are being picked by the harsh lighting. To rectify this I put my lens hood on my camera. However, the back wall can be seen behind the black screen.

Most of the images for my theme will be still life or macro photography and so it is unlikely that I will use this technique, however much I may like the effect it creates.
