SHUTTER SPEED AND MOTION
Still photos can capture motion in many
different ways and frequently reveal drama
and grace that may be missed with the
naked eye or in a movie. Here are two
›
Freezing the action
alternative approaches. Both are illustrated
from cycling but could apply to most other
kinds of action.
BLUR ON THE TRACK
For this shot I used a shutter speed of 1/800 sec.
This was as fast as I could get with an ISO of
3200—I don’t like to use ISOs above this unless
there’s really no alternative. Even with the fast
shutter speed I used a panning technique to
keep the rider centered in the frame, and if you
look closely you can see a little blur in the track,
and even more in the wheels. 86mm, 1/800 sec.,
f/4, ISO 3200.
The D5300’s Sports mode uses fast shutter
speeds to freeze the action, while in
Shutter-priority and Manual modes you
can control the shutter speed directly. The
D5300’s fastest setting is 1/4000sec., but
you’ll rarely need this to capture a sharp
image. The exact shutter speed needed
depends not just on the raw speed of the
subject, but on other factors like distance
from the camera and direction of
movement (e.g. across the frame or
directly towards you). Often you’ll have to
experiment to see what works; warm-up
laps before a race are useful for this, but
remember that speeds will be higher in
the race proper.
