Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO

F2.8


F16
1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture? Eye2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture, the higher the Aperture F number.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?

The Depth of Field depends on aperture because when using a small F number, it brings the focus to be sharper and the background blurry.

High Shutter Speed

Slow Shutter Speed


1. If you were assigned to shoot at Bulldogs and Hotdogs night, which was a few months ago, what shutter speeds 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 was still up and the courtyard had reasonable good light
Slow
a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree
b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings
c.) the Stars performance inside the gym
d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard
e.) people streaming in from the front doors
f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop

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.

High

a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree
b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings
c.) the Stars performance inside the gym
d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard
e.) people streaming in from the front doors
f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop

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.

Aperture Priority- You are able to select the aperture and the camera will set the shutter speed.
Shutter Priority- You are able to set the shutter speed and the camera will set the aperture.
Manual- You have the ability to set both shutter speed and aperture. 
ISO200

ISO3200

ISO6400

1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game? A higher ISO allows you to freeze motion and captures images when there isn't enough light.
2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO? To keep details and maintain a higher quality photo, use low ISO. 
3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO? High ISO should be used when it is dark and there isn't enough light t capture the image. Also when you are trying to get a really fast image.
