 Part 1

1. Which Aperture makes a wider hole in the lens for light to come through? F/3.5

2. Which Aperture lets more light into the camera to hit the image sensor?  F/5.6

3. Which Aperture keeps more of the foreground and background in focus? F/11

4. Which Shutter Speed is faster? 1/200 second

5. Which Shutter Speed keeps the door in the camera open for more time? 1/30 second

6. Which Shutter Speed is best for stopping action? 1/200 second

Part 2: Set 1

AV mode F/2.7

 AV mode F/5.6

 AV mode F/8

The images in this set differ by the aperture. And you can tell. Because the lower the aperture, the more blurred the background will be. When the aperture gets higher, the background becomes more clear.









 Set 2:

 TV mode 1/10

TV mode 1/60

TV mode 1/500

The difference between these photos are the shutter speeds. This makes a difference because it controls how fast the pictures were taken. For example, the first picture is overexposed because the shutter speed was slow, and let more light in. The last photo is clear because it did not let as much light in.







Set 3:

TV mode 1/10

TV mode 1/60

TV mode 1/500

These photos are different by their shutter speeds. As you can see, as the last set, the first photo is overexposed due to too much light being let in. But in the last photo, the movements are frozen and crisp.












Set 4:

TV mode 1/10

TV mode 1/60

TV mode 1/500

These photos are examples of panning. In the first image, everything is overexposed AND blurred. In the second photo, I got the perfect example of panning. Isabel is in focus and the background is blurry. In the last photo, the shutter speed was so fast that everything was frozen, deleting the purpose of panning.

Part 3: Questions

1. Depth of field is the aperture. If the depth of field is shallow, then the aperture is low. If the depth of field is deep, then the aperture is high.

2. A situation where you would use a wide aperture would be one where you were focusing on one object, and aiming for a shallow depth of field.

3. Shutter speed is everything in an image. If it is too slow, it will be overexposed. If it is too fast, it will be underexposed. Shutter speed is all about finding the sweet spot for your unique situation, as it differs in every scenario.
