Shutter
and
Aperture
The opening
of
the
shutter
letting light
in
on the film
is
called an exposure. The
amount
of light striking
the
film
is
controlled
by
the
lens aperture, while
the
length of
time
that
light
is
allowed
to
strike
the
film
is
controlled by
the
shutter.
Shutter
Speed
Dial
The
shutter
dial
is
used
to
adjust
the
shutter
speed. It allows for speed settings
in
the range
of
2 seconds
to
1/1000
of
a second.
VVhen
the
shutter
speed
is
advanced
to
the
next larger
number
,
the
exposure
time
is
cut
in
hiM. The
shutter
speeds on
the
dial are
typically
the
reciprocals of
the
true
shutter
speeds. For example,
125
and
250
on
the
dial
represent
shutter
speeds
of
1/125
and
1/250
of
a second. Only
in
the
case
of
the
orange
"2"
is
the
shutter
speed actually
as
indicated
on
the
dial, i.e., 2 seconds. The
"B"
(Bulb)
setting
is
used for long exposures where
as
long
as
the
shutter
button
is
pressed
down
,
the
shutter
wi
ll
remain
open.
• The
shutter
speed dial
cannot
be set
to
an
intermediate position.
