The Three Pillars of Exposure: Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed

Aperture

Photo taken at F2.8
                                       
Photo taken at F16

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?
i think that the body we should closely relate aperture is the part that controls the aperture.
 2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture large f-number, the higher the Aperture small f-number.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?
aperture impacts Depth of Field by the f-number which means the larger the f-number is the more blurry the background would be. if the f-number is smaller then it will be less of the blurry in the background and the more sharp edges their will be.
Shutter speed
High shutter speed 



Low shutter speed
1. If you were assigned to shoot at Blue and Gold night, which was earlier this month, what shutter speeds (slow, medium, fast)  do you think you would have to shoot at the following events that night I would like you to answer the question for the following two situations:
At the beginning while the sun is still partially up and the courtyard has reasonable light

a.) the dunking booth- i would choose fast

b.) the food eating contest-i would choose fast

c.) the rock climbing wall-i would choose fast 

d.) someone working at a booth- i would choose medium

e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle- i would choose slow
f.) the Diamonds performance.- i would choose medium  


Towards the end when there is no sun and it is dark so there is not enough light to see from one end of the courtyard to the other.

a.) the dunking booth- i would choose fast 

b.) the food eating contest- i would choose fast

c.) the rock climbing wall- i would choose medium

d.) someone working at a booth- i would choose medium

e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle- i would choose slow

f.) the Diamonds performance- i would choose slow

2. List the THREE settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed (these are found at #5 on the Shutter Speed website. Explain how each works - DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, use your own words.
Auto Mode- is when shutter speed and aperture are automatically selected by the camera
Shutter Priority- is when shutter speed and the camera automatically selects the aperture.
Manual- is when where you set both shutter speed and aperture manually.

  ISO


 Photo taken at ISO 200



Photo taken at ISO 3200 

1. What are the advantages of shooting with a higher ISO setting at a sporting event like a night football game?
 while a higher ISO number increases the sensitivity of your camera. This meaning that you would be able to get a better look at the football game better.
2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?
 when using low ISO you cant always get a good picture .
 3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?
When using high ISO you would be able to get a good photo specially in the light

Now its your turn - tell me which ones look the best for:
  • F4- you cant see the background because of how blurry it is 
  • F5.6- you still cant see the background that good 
  • F8-you can see the background better but its getting dark
  • F11- you can see the background but the photo is really dark
  • F16 - same here its getting to dark
  • F22-now you cant see the photo at all
