The shutter speed settings are all in your camera. Your role is to decide which shutter speed to use. There's no hard and fast rule on what to use. For example a) ISO400 | f4 | 1/60 b) ISO200 | f2.8 | 1/60 c) ISO800 | f4 | 1/120 d) ISO 400 | f5.6 | 1/30 the camera will tell you they meter out to be the same exposure BUT once you understand it, you'll see that when compared to a), option b) gives cleaner photo but narrow depth of field and creamier bokeh, while c) freezes motion better due to better shutter speed but adds more noise to the photo. and d) on the other hand gives more depth of field while less optimal for freezing motion.

After reading this i feel refreshed and now have a better understanding of how to use a Single Lens Reflex Camera, and i just want to say thanks for making this page!!!!! =) OK before stumbling across your site, i was completely ignorant to how DSLR and SLR’s worked.
