Shutter Speed Effects
At Bust Your Butt Falls I experimented with a few different shutter speeds on the fast-moving water. Here are shots of one scene taken at four different speeds. I hope this might be useful to someone. FWIW, all of these were taken at 55mm.
In my post Sunday - Nature: Bust Your Butt Falls there are examples of other shots taken at 1/200, 1/125, 1/60, and 1/5.
#1: 1/320 sec @ f/9, ISO 100
---------------------
#2: 1/60 sec @ f/22, ISO 100
-------------
#3: 1/20 sec @ f/36, ISO 100
-------------
#4: 1/5 sec @ f/36, ISO 100
Good experimentation - if there was any moving water around here, I'd put on my variable ND and go for 1/4sec or less and f4-8.
