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

Aperture

F2.8

f16

1. The eye can be closely related to aperture.

2. The smaller the aperture, the higher the aperture f-number.

3. The higher the aperture f-number the sharper the background comes out with the picture.

                                                                     Shutter Speed

high shutter speed

low shutter speed

1. a.) the dunking booth- fast shutter speed

b.) the food eating contest- slow shutter speed

c.) the rock climbing wall- medium shutter speed

d.) someone working at the both- slow shutter speed

e.) the DJ working at the middle of the circle- slow shutter speed

f.) the diamonds performing- high shutter speed

a.) the dunking booth- medium 

b.) the eating contest- slow

c.) the rock climbing wall- slow

d.) someone working the booth- slow

e.) the DJ working at the middle of the circle- slow

f.) the diamonds performance- medium

2. Aperture Priority- you set how much light you let in, but the camera sets how fast it allows the light to travel thew.

Shutter Priority- you decide how fast the light travels threw while the camera picks how much light to let in.

Manual- you get to pick both how much light travels in and how fast it goes threw.

ISO

200

3200

1. You have a better chance on capturing the action thats going on, because its taking the picture faster.

2. He suggested a low ISO works better in the day.

3. The author said that a high ISO works better in the night.

F4- looks better at 1/125 sec- background is blurred but the picture is bright and clear.

F5.6- 1/125 looked the best the background was blurred and picture looked good

F8-  1/60 looked best the background isn't as blurred.

F11-  1/30 the picture is a little blurry.

F16- 1/30 the picture is a little under exposed but is well focused.

F22- 1/8 the picture and background was clear.
