Bronz Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Yeah there was something (I have no idea what) wrong with her camera which caused a shed-load of images to be out of focus regardless of shutter speeds (she spent ages experimenting with various settings and whatnot). Agreed on the flash though. She needs to start broadening her kit I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-Stop Junkie Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Focus and shutter speed are unrelated. This shot is in focus, but has motion blur... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronz Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Focus and shutter speed are unrelated. This shot is in focus, but has motion blur... My bad. I know nothing about photography but was under the impression that a higher shutter speed would help in reducing blur (particularly in action shots). Or is my terminology wrong?

I know nothing about photography but was under the impression that a higher shutter speed would help in reducing blur (particularly in action shots). Or is my terminology wrong? There's a difference between blur and focus. These two shots are relatively slow shutter speed (I think 1/80th and 1/125th of second respectively) but are in focus: Sometimes you want a bit of blur to give a sense of motion or speed. An out of focus shot would have the background (or foreground) in focus, but every part of the rider (or subject) soft. Not just blurred, but actually soft.
