Shutter

1. SLR -  SLR, which stands for single-lens reflex, refers to a type of camera that employs a rotating mirror (either a pentaprism or a pentamirror) that reflects the image that comes through the lens onto a focusing screen.
2. TLR - Twin-lens reflex, a camera with two lenses the upper one is the viewfinder lens that has a mirror reflex view and the bottom one is the taking lens.
3. Shutter -  what determines the duration the sensor is exposed to light.
4. Shutter Speeds - the time for which the shutter exposes the film, typically a small fraction of a second. 
5. Bulb - that keeps the shutter open for as long as the shutter release is pressed 
6. Cable Release - a cable that screws into the camera (on film camera bodies usually into the shutter release, on digital bodies elsewhere) so the shutter can be fired remotely with minimal shake.
7. Tripod - a camera accessory that consists of three legs that support a platform on which photographers can place their cameras.
8. Light Meter- a sensor used to measure light and indicate the ideal exposure settings.
9. Bracketing- is the technique of shooting a number of pictures of the same subject and viewpoint at different levels of exposure. 
10. Hot Shoe- is a mounting point on the top of a camera to attach a flash unit.
