Effect of shutter speed The shutter speed determines the film exposure times, or the length of time that the light is allowed to strike the film.

A faster shutter speed also helps prevent camera shake. slower shutter speed c Effect of aperture The aperture increases or reduces the amount of reflected light from an object which passes through the lens, controlling how much light strikes the film. If the aperture is opened up to increase the amount of light, subjects in front of and behind an in-focus subject will not be focused. That is the range of focus (depth of field) becomes small. If the aperture is stopped down to reduce the amount of light, the depth of field increases. For instance, if you shoot a person against a landscape with the aperture open, the landscape in front of and behind the person will be blurred, making the person appears to rise out of the landscape. By contrast, stopping down the aperture increases the in-focus range. open aperture stopped down aperture 0 0 faster shutter speed :•7

Effect
of
aperture
and
shutter
speed
A
correct
exposure
is
established
by
a
combination
of
shutter
speed
and
aperture
setting
according
to
the
subject
brightness.
There
are
many
correct
combinations
of
shutter
speed
and
aperture
for
a
particular
subject
brightness.
Different
shutter
speed
and
aperture
settings
produce
different
effects.
Effect
of
shutter
speed
The
shutter
speed
determines
the
film
exposure
times,
or
the
length
of
time
that
the
light
is
allowed
to
strike
the
film.
If
the
subject
is
moving,
the
image
will
be
blurred
when
a
slow
shutter
speed
is
used.
It
is
possible
to
enhance
the
effect
of
motion,
(The
movement
of
a
water,
waterfall)
by
intentionally
using
a
slower
shutter
speed.
Choosing
a
faster
shutter
speed
will
allow
the
image
of
a
moving
subject
to
be
frozen.
A
faster
shutter
speed
also
helps
prevent
camera
shake.

Effect
of
aperture
The
aperture
increases
or
reduces
the
amount
of
reflected
light
from
an
object
which
passes
through
the
lens,
controlling
how
much
light
strikes
the
film.
If
the
aperture
is
opened
up
to
increase
the
amount
of
light,
subjects
in
front
of
and
behind
an
in
-focus
subject
will
not
be
focused.
That
is
the
range
of
focus
(depth
of
field)
becomes
small.
If
the
aperture
is
stopped
down
to
reduce
the
amount
of
light,
the
depth
of
field
increases.
For
instance,
if
you
shoot
a
person
against
a
landscape
with
the
aperture
open,
the
landscape
in
front
of
and
behind
the
person
will
be
blurred,
making
the
person
appears
to
rise
out
of
the
landscape.
By
contrast,
stopping
down
the
aperture
increases
the
in
-focus
range.
