Aperture and Shutter speed practice

F4  – looks the best at 1/125 of a second shutter speed.

- The background for F4 at 1/125 of a second for the shutter speed causes a blurred background
F5.6 – looks the best at 1/60 of a second shutter speed.

- The background for f5.6 is blurred out with a 1/60 of a second shutter 
F8  – looks the best at 1/60 of a second shutter speed.
- The background is blurred with a shutter speed of 1/60

F11  – looks the best at 1/30 of a second shutter speed.
-the background is blurred but is still visible 

F16  – looks the best at 1/30 of a second shutter speed.
- background is blurred but is still visible 

F22  – looks the best at 1/8 of a second shutter speed.

- background isn't really blurred, it is very visible 

The images get blurrier as the shutter speed slows down 

making the shutter faster to balance out what you're trying to shoot 

i believe the F5.6 aperture and a 1/60 of a second make the best photograph

The Three Pillars of Photography

PART 1

1) The pupil is essentially what we refer to as aperture in photography
2) The size of the circle represents the size of the lens aperture – the larger the f-number, the smaller the aperture.
3) The size of the aperture has a direct impact on the depth of field, which is the area of the image that appears sharp
4) F22, F20, F18, F16, F14, F13, F11, F10, F9.0, F8.0, F7.1, F6.3, F5.6, F5.0, F4.5, F4.0, F3.5
5) The highest is F3.5 and the smallest is F22

F2.8

F16

F) Medium

1) Setting the camera to Shutter Priority mode, where you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically selects the aperture. Pretty much the opposite of Aperture Priority.
2) Setting the camera to Manual mode, where you set both shutter speed and aperture on your own.
3) Aperture Priority lets you set the lens aperture, while the camera automatically sets the shutter speed for you.

200

 3200

 6400

1) because the background would not be as clear as your main focus

2)  Always use the lowest ISO she  possible to get the highest image quality

3) increase the ISO when there is not enough light

4) 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400
