General Quiz 3

This will help you to understand:

Remember the F-stop with the smallest number has the biggest aperture opening and lets the most amount of light into the camera.
In this case the smallest F-number is F2.8.

No, it is not what you think! It is Depth of Field.

There is like a door (shutter) inside the camera, which opens and closes while we are taking a picture, so the time the shutter remains open, while we taking a picture, is the shutter speed.

1/500sec is the fastest shutter speed out of three given, this is why it is the best shutter speed out of all to freeze the moving subject. 2sec and 1/15sec are too slow.

Remember this:

Every next stop of ISO is twice as sensitive to light as the previous one.
This way ISO 200 is twice as sensitive as ISO 100,
ISO 400 is twice as sensitive as ISO 200,
ISO 800 is twice as sensitive as ISO 400,
ISO 1600 is twice as sensitive as ISO 800 and so on…

Remember: Exposure is the amount of light which gets into the camera and is projected onto recording media (sensor).

Here how it goes:
f2 1/500s = f4 1/125s – if we close down aperture 2 stops (from f2 to f4), we have to slow down our shutter speed 2 stops (from 1/500s to 1/125s) to get the same amount of light.

f2 1/60s = f4 1/15s – if we close down aperture 2 stops (from f2 to f4), we have to slow down our shutter speed 2 stops (from 1/60s to 1/15s) to get the same amount of light.

Remember this:

Shorter Focal Length will give you more DoF. In this case 35mm is the shortest Focal Length.

Remember:

Remember: The higher the Kelvin Number, the cooler the color temperature.

Curve created by the cost line make this image interesting and leads the viewer eye into the distance. Foreground, Middle Ground and Background creates Depth in the image.
More of the landscape was included by Placing the Horizon above the middle.

Remember: Wider Aperture, Slower Shutter Speed and Higher ISO will give us more light. Also we can add some light with Flash.

Remember: Incident Metering is more accurate, because it doesn’t take into account subjects color, background color, brightness or texture. It just meters the intensity of light falling on the subject

Remember:

When to shoot JPEG:

1. You have limited storage (memory card or hard drive)
2. You are willing to do only minimal postproduction or none
3. You need images right away
4. You should fast action like sport photography in burst mode

When to shoot RAW:

1. You enjoy postprocessing and want more flexibility
2. If you should under difficult lightening conditions:
– When you think that highlights might be overexpose
– When you are unsure about white balance
– When you are unsure about your exposure

It is false. F/16 actually lets less light then F/11, since F/11 has a bigger aperture opening then F/16. Remember the bigger the F-number, the smaller the opening and the smaller the F-number the bigger the opening.

Remember: The slower the shutter speed, the more light you get. Shutter speed of 15 (which is 1/15 sec) is the slowest shutter speed (which means that the shutter with this shutter speed remains open the longest).

Shutter speed priority mode would be more appropriate for panning shots, because controlling your shutter speed it more important for creating a background motion blur. Shutter speed of 1/25 sec was used for this photo.

Think this way: The surfer and the water on this picture moving fast. Shutter speed should also be fast enough to freeze the action.
1sec and 1/30sec are pretty slow shutter speeds. So the unswear is 1/500sec, which a pretty fast shutter speed.
