Today we'll be shooting on TV mode to introduce the exposure triangle.

In simplest terms, shutterspeed freezes motion. Shutter speed is how long your camera's "eye" stays open to let in light when you take a photo.

  • Fast shutter speed (like 1/1000 of a second) freezes motion, perfect for capturing moving subjects like a running dog or a car.

  • Slow shutter speed (like 1 second) lets in more light, great for low-light scenes or creating effects like blurry waterfalls or light trails.

Think of it like a window shutter: open it quickly, and only a little light comes in; leave it open longer, and more light comes in!

Place your photos in a collage in CANVA and label with the shutterspeed.
