Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO - What are they?

Aperture
1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?
The pupil of our eye. 
2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture the darker the photo, the higher the Aperture the lighter the photo.
3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?

When you have a bigger aperture you have more background blur. When you have smaller aperture then you have less background blur. 

Shutter Speed
1. If you were assigned to shoot at Bulldogs and Hotdogs night, which was a few months ago, what shutter speeds do you think you would have to shoot at the following events that night I would like you to answer the question for the following two situations:

At the beginning while the sun was still up and the courtyard had reasonable good light
Shorter Shutter Speed
a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree
b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings
c.) the Stars performance inside the gym
d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard
e.) people streaming in from the front doors
f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop

Towards the end when there is no sun and has gotten dark enough that you can't see from one end of the courtyard to the other.
Slower Shutter Speed
a.) a booth in the middle of the yard near the Tree

b.) a food booth outside under one of the big red awnings
c.) the Stars performance inside the gym
d.) students dancing near the center of the courtyard
e.) people streaming in from the front doors
f.) the basketball booth where students are shooting basketballs at a hoop


2. List the three settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed (these are found at #5 on the Shutter Speed website. Explain how each works - DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, use your own words. There is auto setting where your camera decides what the shutter speed is because of the lighting. If you put your camera on manual then you choose the aperture and shutter speed. Lastly,  you set the camera into "Shutter Speed" and then the camera chooses the aperture while you choose the shutter speed. 
High Shutter Speed


Slow Shutter Speed

1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game? The advantages of shooting a higher ISO at a sporting event is that it captures the photo and it is like you froze time. 

2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?

You would use a low ISO when there is a dim or dark environment. 

3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?

You should use high ISO to capture a picture and every detail. Also you should use a higher ISO when there is more light in the image.
