Fast shutter speed, short exposure
Slow Shutter speed, long exposure In photography, exposure value (EV) is a value given to all combinations of camera shutter speed and aperture that gives the same exposure. By definition, EV 0 corresponds to a shutter speed of 1 s and an aperture of f/1.0. It is a base 2 negative logarithmic scale, where an increase of one EV corresponds to half the amount of light admitted.

By the Additive Photographic Exposure System (APEX), the exposure value is the sum of the Aperture Value and the Time Value: - EV = AV + TV
If N is the f-number (such as 2.8, 4.0, 5.6, ...), the Aperture Value is A 35mm lens set to f/11, as indicated by the white dot above the f-stop scale on the aperture ring In photography the f-number (focal ratio) expresses the diameter of the diaphragm aperture in terms of the effective focal length of the lens. ...

. A light meter will read the amount of light from a scene giving a light value, and this will have to be translated to an EV depending on the film speed used, usually expressed as an ISO rating. For ISO 100 film, the metered light value is identical to the exposure value required for a "proper" exposure. Slower films with ISO films speeds below 100 require a corresponding increase in exposures, i.e. lower exposure values. In practice, most light meters for photography will have a setting for film speed, and give exposure value or a list of suitable aperture/shutter combinations directly. Some cameras, like certain Hasselblad models, also have markings for EV. Photograph of a handheld digital ambient light meter, showing an f-stop of 5. ...
