Aperture and Shutter Speed Practice

F4 -Looks the best at of 1/125 a second shutter speed

F5.6 - Looks the best at of 1/60 a second shutter speed

F8 Looks the best at of a 1/60 a second shutter speed

F11 - Looks the best at of a 1/30 a second shutter speed

F16 - Looks the best at of a 1/30 a second shutter speed

F22 - Looks the best at of a 1/15 a second shutter speed

At F4 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

None is visible. Blurry. Mostly blurry

At F5.6 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

Partially visible. Blurry. Partially focused.

At F8 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

Partially visible. Blurry. Partially focused

At F11 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

Mostly visible. Blurry. It is barely blurry.

At F16 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

Completely visible. Focused. Mostly focused.

At F22 How much background is visible? Is it blurry or in focus? How much?

Hundo percent visible. Focused. Completely focused.

1. The slower the shutter speed the more blurry the people become

2. Raise the shutter speed and lower the F-stops.

3. I think the best picture would be at 1/60 with the F-stop at 8, it make the people focused and the background still blurry but you can tell whats behind them.

Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Aperture

1. The Eye ( Pupil )

2.The smaller the Aperture the lesser depth of field, the higher the Aperture the greater depth of field.

3. A smaller aperture will focus in on something close causing it to have a shallower depth of field. The larger aperture will give you a bigger range of focus.

4. F4, F5.6, F8, F11, F16, F22

5. Smallest aperture: F4; Largest aperture: F22

Shutter Speed

Lighter Part of Day

a.) the dunking booth: Fast

b.) the food eating contest: Medium

c.) the rock climbing wall: Medium

d.) someone working at a booth: Slow

e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle: Fast

f.) the Diamonds performance: Fast

Darker Part of Day

a.) the dunking booth: Medium

b.) the food eating contest: Slow

c.) the rock climbing wall: Slow

d.) someone working at a booth: Slower

e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle: Medium

f.) the Diamonds performance: Medium

Three Manual Presets That Effect Shutter Speed

1. Aperture Priority, Automatically sets the Shutter Speed for the best possible Shutter Speed and you edit the Aperture

2. Shutter Priority, Automatically sets the Aperture for the best possible Aperture and you edit the Shutter Speed

3. Manual, you edit the ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture on your own to get the picture the way you want it to look

Shutter Speeds

The shutter speeds are 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10, 1/13, 1/15, 1/20, 1/25, 1/30, 1/40, 1/50, 1/60, 1/80, 1/100, 1/25, 160, 1/200, 1/250, 1/320, 1/400, 1/500, 1/640, 1/800, 1/1000, 1/1250, 1/1600, 1/2000, 1/2500, 1/3200, 1/4000
