Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

APERTURE

Example of a photo taken at aperture setting F2.8:

F16:

1. We should relate aperture to our pupils. 

2.  The smaller the Aperture the larger the F-stop is, the higher the Aperture the smaller the F-stop is.

3. Aperture impacts Depth of Field because it changes the focusing on objects and the amount of blur shown in photos. 

SHUTTER SPEED 

High Shutter speed:

Slow Shutter Speed:

1. 

GOOD LIGHTING

a). a booth in the middle of the yard near the tree- FAST

b). a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings- SLOW

c). the Stars performance inside the gym- FAST

d). students dancing near the center of the courtyard- FAST

e). people streaming in from the front doors- LONG

f). the basketball booth where people are shooting basketballs at a hoop- FAST

DARK

Manual- Manually setting up both shutter speed and aperture.

ISO

200:

3200:

1.  The advantage of shooting at a higher ISO is that it catches the picture quickly.

2.  Using a low ISO is better with plenty of light because it gives you a clearer picture and more detail.

3.  Using a high ISO is when there's not enough lighting for the camera to capture a quick photo.
