THE CAMERA- SHUTTER SPEED

 THE CAMERA- SHUTTER SPEED 

1. What is shutter speed?
Shutter speed is the amount of time that the camera shutter is open, letting light into the camera sensor. It is how long a camera spends taking a photo.

2. How is it measured?
Shutter speeds are usually measured in fractions of a second when they are under a second. 

3. How does it affect exposure? 
When using a long shutter speed, the camera sensor gathers a lot of light, and the photograph ends up being quite bright. When using a quick shutter speed, the camera sensor is only exposed to a small amount of light, resulting in a darker image.

4. What is the purpose of a slow shutter speed?
Long shutter speeds are used for low light and nigh photography, or to capture movement intentionally.

5. What is the purpose of a fast shutter speed?
Fast shutter speeds are used to freeze action within photographs.

6. Find visual examples of slow shutter and fast shutter speeds.

  THE CAMERA-  APERTURE AND IRIS 1. What is aperture? Aperture is the opening of the camera lens through which light passes to enter the camera.  2.  How does it affect exposure? In large aperture, a lot of light passes through the camera lens, resulting in a brighter photograph. In small aperture, very little light enters the camera lens, resulting in a darker photograph. 3. How does it affect depth of field? A large aperture results in large amount of foreground and background blur, creating low depth of field. A small aperture results in small amount of background blur, creating greater depth of field. 4. How do you pick the right aperture for your scene?  The right aperture depends upon how much depth of field and exposure you desire in the picture. 5.
