Aperture, Shutter Speed & ISO.














This photo was taken at the aperture setting of F2.8.














This photo was taken at the aperture setting of F16.

1) The part of the body that we should closely relate with aperture is the eye.

2) The smaller the aperture the larger the f-stop, and the higher the aperture the smaller the f-stop.

3) The larger the aperture the less depth of field you have so the foreground will be really clear while the background is blurry and the smaller the aperture the more focused the whole picture will be, both back and foreground.















This photo was taken using a slow shutter speed.















This photo was taken using a fast shutter speed.

1)
a. very fast
b. kind of slow
c. fast
d. fast
e. kind of fast
f. fast or slow

2)
a. very slow
b. kind of slow
c. not so slow
d. slow
e. slowish
f. kind of slow

The camera has three different settings regarding shutter setting.
Aperture Priority: which allows you to set your own aperture while the camera controls shutter speed.
Shutter Priority: which allows you to set shutter speed while the camera controls aperture.
Manual: this setting allow you to set both your shutter speed and aperture.

















This picture was taken using an ISO of 200.











This picture was taken using an ISO of 6400.

The advantages of using higher ISO's at a sporting event or a night game would be being able to take low light pictures without as flash if you use a higher ISO but also higher ISO's can freeze motion.

Some suggestions from the author about low ISO's were to try to use it as often as possible, especially when there is plenty of light.

Some suggestions from the author about high ISO's were to increase it when they're is less light or if your taking a fast shot but not to lower it so much because it adds fuzz.

F 2.8 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/125.
F 4 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/125.
F 5.6 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/60.
F 8 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/60.
F 11 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/60.
F 16 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/30.
F 22 looks best at the shutter speed of 1/15.

At F2.8 and 1/4th of a second there's no background, so nothing is going on.
At F4 and 1/4th of a second there's still no background but you start to see a picture.
At F 5.6 and 1/4th of a second you can see only the outline of the background.
At F 8 and and 1/4th of a second there's more of the background.
At F 11 and 1/4th of a second you can see all the background but it's blurry.
At F 16 and 1/4th of a second the background still has a slight blur but it's darker.
At F 22 and 1/4th the background is almost perfect.

At slow shutter speeds the people come out very blurry.
To combat this problem, they can simply use a higher of faster shutter speed.
I think 1/15th of a second is the slowest shutter speed at which a photographer can hand-hold the camera.

I got an 80 on the first test and a 92 on the second one . I don't think i understand aperture, shutter speed and ISO exactly but yes, definitely better.
