Interactive Aperture, Shutter and ISO Explanation

This is an excellent interactive tool to learn How System Cameras Work: aperture, shutter and iso value. Play with the sliders, watch the image change in real-time depending on what you do. Each adjustment can be counter-adjusted by another slider.

For beginning photographers this could be an invaluable tool to learn by painless doing rather than risk missing an important shot while out at a shoot.

I got very adept at adjusting my shutter speed on the fly this last weekend to account for the many different lighting situations I encountered at the two weddings. My general preference is to err a little on the high side (a step to the right of center) rather than too low.

This is a really great tool!
