KODAK Self-Teaching Guide to Using an Adjustable 35 mm Camera

EXERCISE #7

Just to prove to yourself how nice it is to be able to use a fast shutter speed, try taking the

same type of picture (as in Exercise #6) but using a shutter speed of 30. Your subject should be

in the shade, so you can use this shutter speed and a small lens opening on your camera.

Remember to focus properly and if you have a light meter use it. Hold steady—this is a very

slow shutter speed.*

(Put your example here.)

*30 is the slowest shutter speed you can use and still take sharp pictures while holding the camera in your hand. If

you need a slower shutter speed, use a tripod or set the camera on something firm and solid.
