Today I decided to go out and play with the shutter speed, what I got… confused well, not really. I went out wanting to use the same F stop 4.5 and ISO 200 and just change the SS and this is what I got.
Of course the subject is the dog. I wasn’t looking for clarity necessarily, just the right lighting. I started my Shutter Speed at 1/80th working my way down or up, since in photography everything is backwards less is more, more is less. As if things aren’t hard enough.
So the numbers go down as the lighting goes up; hence less is more and now, my head starts to hurt.
1/80th Remember all other variables stayed the same f4.5 ISO200
1/40th
1/30th
1/25th
1/20th
1/15th
1/13th
Now to decide which is the best ratio that produced the most accurate light. If I went with my own eyes I would say it was 1/30th. My cameras Histogram would tell me it was 1/15th.
I chose the 1/30th because the overall colors seem to match the best to what was actually around outside and inside the car.
If you don’t know what the Histogram is, look into it. I am just learning about it myself and find it to be helpful.
Well I wanted to post the picture for my 365 project too. I found the experiment to be helpful and maybe for you too. But, this was the one I like the best. Lighting, clarity and he is just so stinking cute!
