Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO

APERTURE

F2.8

F16

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture? 

The human eye

2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture the more in focus the foreground and background is, the higher the Aperture  the more blurry the background and foreground of the photo is.

3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?

Aperture impacts depth of field because it controls how in focus or blurry the background and foreground of a photo is. Depth of field is the area of an image that is sharp. So if the background is blurry, then the photo has a small depth of field but if the background is in focus, the photo has a high depth of field. 

SHUTTER SPEED

Fast Shutter

Slow Shutter

At the beginning while the sun was still up and the courtyard had reasonable good light

a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree Slow

b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings Fast

c.) the Stars performance inside the gym Fast

d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard Fast

e.) people streaming in from the front doors Slow

f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop 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.

a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree Slow

b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings Fast

c.) the Stars performance inside the gym Fast

d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard Slow

f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop Slow

1. Aperture Priority: the photographer sets the aperture settings while the camera manually sets shutter speed

2. Shutter Priority: the photographer sets the shutter speed and the camera manually sets the aperture. 

3. Manual: the photographer controls both of these settings on the camera

ISO

ISO 200

ISO 6400

1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game?

With a higher ISO, the camera can capture fast motions better and at a night games, it allows more light into the picture without ending up with a blur. 

2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?

He suggested you should always try to stick with a low ISO especially when there is plenty of light. Also, if you want to keep the detail in your photo, you should use a low ISO.

3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?

He suggested that you use a high Iso when trying to capture very fast motion or when it is dark outside to prevent blur.
