How to choose between Aperture and Shutter Speed Priority

Graham Season 7 Episode 15

Using Aperture and Shutter Speed modes (however they are identified in your camera) is the best way to indulge your creativity while getting the camera to do a lot of the ‘heavy lifting’ for you.

Your choices are Aperture Priority (where Depth of Field is the dominant creative element) and Shutter Speed Priority (where it’s all about movement). But which is best?

In this podcast, I’ll take you through the decision-making process that I use (and I have my favourite mode… and it might not be yours!).

There are two important points to take away from this podcast:

1. The most important part of any image is the subject; everything else should support it.

2. It’s best to be familiar with both modes and when to use them. Ultimately, there will be times when one is better than the other, and vice versa.

I hope you enjoy it!
