2. List the three settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed (these are found at #5 on the Shutter Speed website. Explain how each works - DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, use your own words.
 -when the camera is put in "Auto" the camera automatically selects shutter speed and aperture.
-when you use aperture priority you set the lens aperture and the camera automatically sets the shutter speed.
-when you use shutter priority you set the shutter speed and the camera selects the aperture.
