Tips
• It is possible to perform exposure compensation by intentionally mismatching the
shutter-speed indicator and the exposure-meter indicator.
• Reference for shutter speed selection:
...
If you want to freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject, choose a shutter speed
over 1/500.
...
If you want to create a motion effect by blurring the subject, choose a shutter
speed under 1/60.
...
If you want to accentuate the flow of the water, choose a shutter speed of under 1/15.
...
If you want to shoot fireworks or tracks of lights at night, choose B.
This will cause underexposure. This will cause overexposure.
