Aperture, Shutter Speed, and Iso


Aperture:



1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture? The stem of the flower and his chest and arm.
2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the aperture, the more the background is blurred out, the higher the aperture, the less the background is blurred out.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field? If the aperture is small, the background will be blurred out but if the aperture is large, the background will be less blurry.

Shutter Speed:

At the beginning while the sun is still partially up and the courtyard has reasonable light
a.) the dunking booth- high
b.) the food eating contest- high
c.) the rock climbing wall- slow
d.) someone working at a booth- high
e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle- high
f.) the Diamonds performance.- high

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.) the dunking booth- slow
b.) the food eating contest- high
c.) the rock climbing wall- slow
d.) someone working at a booth- slow
e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle- slow
f.) the Diamonds performance.- slow


ISO:

1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game?
To get a quick picture of what you're trying to capture where there isn't much light and to freeze motion.
2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?
When you have enough light, try to use as much less of ISO.
3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?
To use high ISO you can capture pictures that have a lot of movement so you can freeze the motion and be able to capture it.

Sim Cam link:

F5.6- looks the best at 1/60 of a second shutter speed. There is no background visible. All you can see is the couple.

F4- looks the best at 1/125 of a second shutter speed. There is no background visible, all you can see is the couple.

F8- looks the best at 1/60 of a second shutter speed. The background is blurry.
F11- looks the best at 1/60 of a second shutter speed. the background is blurry.
F16- looks the best at 1/30 of a second shutter speed. the background is more clear but still a little blurry.
F22- looks the best at 1/15 of a second shutter speed. The background is clear.


Test results: I did well, I understand it better now.
