for those who like to be experimental
 <  Image 1 of 4  > 

its a slow shutter speed experiment, creat really cool photos like the ones shown here.

Its not that hard once you get the hang of it.

just get a digital camera that has a manual setting[thats a f stop]

and set it on the lowest setting. I usually try F 6, but it is an experiment

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    set the manual setting

    look for the M.

    Most digital cameras will either have it on a dial[like the picture] or a setting for it]

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    fiddle with that F stop

    to get the F stop to work you need to press down on the F stop button[usually near the on/off button) it will most likely have a shutter symbol next to it.


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    next step is to set up the camera on a tripod

    get ready to shoot your object and then click the shutter button

    Now wait, don't touch the camera. The shutter is moving at a very slow speed, so wait till you hear a click.[that will be the shutter closing)

    usually one minute wait time.

    now you can view ur experimental picture
