Shutter Speeds (write out the speeds and explain what they mean)- 1/1000 s, 1/500 s, 1/250 s, 1/125 s, 1/60 s, 1/30 s, 1/15s, 1/8 s, 1/4 s, 1/2 s, 1 s.
Shutter Priority- Shutter priority refers to a setting on some cameras that allows the user to choose a specific shutter speed while the camera adjusts the aperture to ensure correct exposure.
Exposure & how to set your camera for a good exposure- Exposure is the total amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium (photographic film or image sensor) during the process of taking a photograph. There are two components of exposure: brightness and duration.
Your camera’s metering system thinks of everything as 18% gray. The "Zone System: can be very helpful in getting a good exposure on a digital camera. If you want your camera to make exposure decisions for you, then you can use matrix metering.
Bulb- It is a shutter speed setting on an adjustable camera that allows for long exposure times under the direct control of the photographer. The shutter simply stays open as long as the shutter release button remains depressed.

Bracketing- It is the general technique of taking several shots of the same subject using different or the same camera settings. It is useful and often recommended in situations that make it difficult to obtain a satisfactory image with a single shot, especially when a small variation in exposure parameters has a comparatively large effect on the resulting image.
Hot Shoe- It is a mounting point on the top of a camera to attach a flash unit.
