Basically, that controls how much light/information the sensor gets. F/1.8 is a fairly small ratio, which indicates that the diameter of the hole opening is large, meaning more light/information is going through to sensor. F/22 is fairly large ratio, indicating the the diameter of the hole opening is small, meaning less light/information going through to sensor.

25'' is the shutter speed = time it takes for shutter to open and close = time the sensor is exposed to light/information.

1/100 = 1/100 of a second = fairly fast shutter. Sensor isn't exposed to much light/information.

25'' = 25 seconds = fairly slow shutter. Sensor is exposed to a lot of light and information.

Put f-stop and shutter speed together, and one can achieve a shit-ton of different looks, depending on the conditions.

For example when shooting cars, during the day time...a fairly small F-stop with a fast shutter speed is ideal.

For shooting landscapes, in the dark of night, with isolated sources of light in the distance....a longer exposure time with smaller opening might be better, than say having a large opening with fast shutter speed.

That's a 1/3 of the challenge. ISO, white balance, angle, focus, etc. must all be considered.

Lots of math and shit lol.

But fun stuff

What camera and or equipment would you recommend for a first time buyer?

All of them idgaf.

Should have specified nighttime f/5's.

You know I'm just trolling. Absolutely everything would look like beer goggles, which is how I assume most of the tinder fatties expect me to see them.

Start with a decent smartphone. Learn how to frame shots and adjust exposure.

Max out on it. If you still like shooting photo, then go for a Sony mirrorless or Canon Ti-X. Shoot with the kit lens, get a hang of the camera. Then get a lens that fits you needs.

If you like street photography, get a fast prime. If you like peeping, a zoom.

Tripod's are also nice, but learn to shoot without one first.

LOL. I'm well aware.

Most of car shots are hand held. Long exposures are all tripod. Being able to crop without too much quality loss is bae.

It's funny, have you heard of H2Oi, the east coast Ocean City MD car event? silvergray545 has seen lots of my rolling shots, my 70-200mm f/4 IS USM is actually ridiculously accurate even during dusk hours, good thing I didn't splurge the extra $1500 on the f/2.8. Doesn't mean I don't want it, though.

Nighttime long exposure I don't even bother handheld; unless it's greater than f/2.8 for still subjects and high shutter speed. Used to be able to handhold 3.5 before I started lifting weights.

EDIT: Actually haven't uploaded anything to that page since H2Oi of that year, smh. I'll start using it again next year when I cop the God camera body.

I have and I've seen some of your stuff, I think.

Always wanted to do rolling shots, but can't find anyone who can drive while I shot...

Do have any stabilization, like in body or optical?

All my lenses are optically stabilized. Body isn't dat fancy, but I've got a surprisingly steady hand. My L glass telephoto has two modes, specific for sports and stills, but I rarely take it off of the default setting. And I shoot wide open for everything. The lens is that good.

Oh P.S. BTW you two I deleted my IG so if you're looking for me I'm not there. Taking a break from social media posting for a bit.

Please come shoot my cars.

Bruh, you've taken a break from social media more times than I can count since I've known you.

I'm always stuck being the driver for my local BMW friends when we do rolling shots since I can put my roof down. I recently got shots of my own car finally though.

Here we go. Genuinely have only needed these two over the last 3 years. They cover everything.
