Tip of the day

Hey Everyone,

Sorry been a while with the post had some RL things to deal with but now I'm back.  I thought I'd do a quick tip of the day. This one has to do with focal length and shutter speed.

So I'll get right into it. This is an beginners guide for people who may just purchased there DSLR or want to know a little more about there camera.

The most important thing to know is that your shutter speed should always (in most cases) be higher than your focal length. Example. Say you have a 35-300 lens and you are focused at 50mm. Your shutter speed should be 1/60th. If you are shooting at focus length 100 mm then your shutter should be set to 1/125mm. Why you ask.

 The anwer is simple. It has to do with your Cmos sensor in your camera and the way it picks up light. If you have it under your focus length then more light is let into the sensor and you get blown out pictures.

 Anyhow Hope you found this informative. I'll try to post on a regular basis. Take care and have fun shooting!!!
