    I was trying to take some photos today and wanted to blur the people walking by. I set the iso to 100, aperture to 22 and tried different shutter speeds (1 sec, half a sec, 1/4 sec). It created a washed out all white image. Please advise as I couldn't maket he ISO any lower or the aperture any higher. This was outside around 3pm on a sunny day.

    • shutter speed too slow. you probably want closer to 1/15 or 1/10. think about the distance a person travels in 1/10 of a second.epic_rim

    • no this will not work, the longer the shutter is open the more light will come in and drown the imageHijoDMaite
    • making it total white as he mentioned. you need to use a solid ND FillterHijoDMaite
    • if you absolutly have to have 100ISO, ƒ22 and 1s. try what Hijodemaite said.pango
