no the Nikon Coolpix P100 does not have a bulb setting. but you can set your shutter speed to 8 seconds, you will just have to "light paint" really fast.
Typically on most Nikon cameras, you just rotate the command dial.
Shutter speed is so important. Two cameras really fast shutter speed that also have great features are the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-HX5V and Nikon Coolpix S8100. Cnet.com is a great place to do research here is their list of small and speedy cameras: http://reviews.cnet.com/2795-6501_7-407.html?tag=centerColumnArea1.2;buyAdvice
When using a Nikon 42x P510 camera it is very easy to slow down the shutter speed. On the side of the camera there is a dial that you can access to slow or speed up the shutter speed.
Focal plane shutter with speeds from 30 seconds to 1/4,000 of a second.
When the higher or lower shutter speed either renders motion in an unacceptable way (depending on the subject matter) or the lower shutter speed is too slow for hand-holding the camera.
It doesn't necessarily inprove your picture. The higher the shutter speed, the less light, also the blur in a photo. A higher shutter speed will freeze a photo. A lower shutter speed will blur most motion and will increase chances of blur.
The amount of time that the shutter remains open - allowing light to pass through it to form the image. Generally - a lower shutter speed would be combined with a smaller aperture and a higher shutter speed with a larger aperture to correctly expose the image.
The Nikon 17-55 mm camera has an advanced shutter speed of 1/200 seconds and a focal length of 17 mm. It features high speed auto focusing and is extremely accurate with fine optics.
Yes--but only in manual mode, so you'll have to set your own aperture and shutter speed.
Shutter speed has a lot to do with your overall exposure. A higher shutter speed will decrease the light a lot. I was in best buy playing around with a camera and turned the camera shutter speed to 1/4000. After taking the photo, the preview was black. I realized it was because of how much higher I increase my shutter speed. Shutter speed also affects motion in a photo. A higher shutter speed will freeze all action in a photo a will less likely have a blur to it if you have a shaky hand. A lower shutter speed lets in more light while the shutter is will opened so the entire time that the shutter is open, the camera takes in all that light. Increasing chances of blur, you can also use this for crazy, funky effects! If your taking a picture of a waterfall with a low shutter speed, your gonna get a blur, which can typically look pretty epic sometimes too.
You would want a camera, such as a Nikon or Canon, with a high shutter speed, because without that, a runner would simply be a blur. A high-end Nikon would do the trick perfectly.
