Shutter Speed Chart as a Photographer’s Cheat Sheet
When we talk about Shutter Speed in photography, the first thing that comes to mind is its relationship with Exposure. The Shutter speed is one essential third of the Exposure Triangle (Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed), and using it correctly will help you get perfectly exposed photos. We are sharing this shutter speed chart to help you visualize how different shutter speeds will impact your photos.
But my belief is that understanding and mastering Shutter Speed for perfectly exposed images is the easiest part of the equation. The more exciting, but at the same time more challenging, part is to learn how to use Shutter Speed as an artistic tool in our photography. By using different settings of Shutter Speed, we can achieve some amazing effects.
The goal of this Shutter Speed Chart is to summarize and illustrate the different aspects of Shutter Speed to help photographers to master Shutter Speed to get well-exposed photos and embrace it as an artistic tool.

Photographer Derrick Bias shared a few priceless photos that show the exact impact that moving a strobe away fro ma subject has.
One trivial effect, of course it the fact that less light hits the model, but light fall off, background to model illumination ratio and overall contrast also play a part in this game. While I encourage everyone to take the time to learn The Inverse Square Law, and its impact on your photos these photos will provide an instant reference point if you are just starting out.
