Aperture, Shutter Speed & ISO

Aperture


Aperture F2.8

Aperture 16

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?
Aperture is considered closely related to the eyes, especially the iris. 
2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture _the darker the photo_, the higher the Aperture _the brighter the photo_.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?

Aperture determines whether a photo has a deep or shallow depth of field. Large apertures focus on only the main subject, blurring the background completely. Small apertures result in having a deep depth of field, meaning the whole photo is in focus.

Shutter Speed
High shutter speed

Slow shutter speed

Shutter speeds required to shoot at the following events:
At the beginning while the sun was still up and the courtyard had reasonable good light:
Short Shutter Speed
a.) slow
b.) slow
c.) fast
d.) fast
e.) slow
f.) fast

Towards the end when there is no sun and has gotten dark enough that you can't see from one end of the courtyard to the other:

Slow Shutter Speed
a.) long
b.) long
c.) fast
d.) fast
e.) slow
f.) fast

Three settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed:
1. Manual- photographer chooses shutter speed and aperture
2. Shutter Priority- aperture is automatically selected and photographer chooses shutter speed

3. Aperture Priority- shutter speed is preset by camera and photographer chooses aperture
**Automatic- shutter speed and aperture are preset by camera 

ISO

ISO 6400

1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game?
The ISO can brighten the photo, making it easier to see, allowing for the most detail in a photo.
2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?
  • stick to low ISO whenever possible 
  • use low ISO and long shutter speed in dark environments with still camera if possible
3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?
  •  increase ISO when not enough light for the camera to get sharp photo
  •  indoor photos without flash- high ISO to avoid blur
  •  fast action photos- raise ISO
  •  low lighting environment- auto ISO
