The purpose of this article is to clear up myths and misinformation about image exposure, ISO, and noise. So, what is exposure exactly? Exposure is simply the amount of light reaching your sensor or film in a given amount of time. The amount of light reaching your sensor is determined by the length of time the camera’s shutter is open, and the size of the opening in your selected lens model.
Rolling shutter is a term used to describe how data is transferred from an electronic sensor into the camera’s memory as an image. When you snap the shutter button, a series of actions is placed in motion and light hits the sensor to create an image. However it takes time for the camera to “roll” over the entire sensor to read the data that continues to be captured until the entire sensor has been read.
