One of the three pillars of photography is exposure time. The other two are aperture and ISO. Exposure time is responsible for two things: changing the brightness of your photo and creating dramatic effects by freezing or blurring. In this chapter of the basics of digital photography, I will simply explain everything you need to know about exposure time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

How does your digital camera expose?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>

The exposure time<\/strong> exists thanks to the so-called shutter. Put simply, it’s a kind of curtain that stays closed and covers the camera sensor until you pull the trigger. When you press the shutter release button, the shutter opens and light can fall through the lens directly onto the sensor. As soon as the sensor has absorbed enough light, the shutter closes and locks out the light again. The release button is also called the shutter or interlock button because it releases the shutter.<\/p>\n
