I have a moral question for you. This is an hypothetical situation, but I
think it is fun to decide what one would do.
The situation: You are in the Midwest, and there is a huge flood in
progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised, and
infrastructures destroyed.
Let's say that you're a photographer out getting still photos for a news
service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes. You
come across Bill Clinton who has been swept away by the flood waters. He
is barely hanging on to a tree limb and is about to go under. You can
either put down your camera and save him, or take a Pulitzer prize winning
photograph of him as he loses his grip on the limb.
So, here's the question:
What shutter speed would you use?
