- ISO 100
-For ISO 100, at mid day(10am-5pm) outdoors with sunlit mid-toned object, set aperture at F16, and the shutter speed at 1/ISO or 1/100th

Aperture, Shutter speed, and ISO Review

F2.8

F16

What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?

The person/object that is closest to the camera.

The smaller the Aperture the greater the depth, the higher the Aperture the smaller the depth.

In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?
Aperture impacts Depth of Field by making the main subject sharp and the background blurry during a large f-stop and the opposite during a small f-stop.

List all of the F-stops available on the lens
F3.5, F4, F4.5, F5, F5.6, F6.3, F7.1, F8, F9, F10, F11, F13, F14, F16, F18, F20, F22, F25, F29 

What is the highest and smaller aperture numbers available on the kit lens?
F3.5 & F29

List the manual presets that allow you to affect shutter speed on your camera.
Shutter Priority & Manual Mode


How does each one work
Shutter priority- Where you decide the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture for you.
Manual Mode- Where you choose your own shutter speed and aperture by hand.

Part III

ISO 200

ISO 6400

What are the advantages of shooting at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or night football?
You get more detail in the picture even when they're constantly moving.


What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?
You should always try to stay with low ISO especially when there's plenty of light.


What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?
You should increase the ISO when there is little light and you have to capture the image quickly.

How to Create Amazing Urban Landscape and Street Photography Images

The reason I would like to learn this type of photography is because I love urban landscapes and cities. So going to the city and photographing urban landscapes will probably become a hobby of mine. I love capturing old antique buildings and just basically anything that looks older than the modern era. Each object in this picture makes it even more interesting. The textures in this picture may look old and gritty but they can become more interesting in the right lighting. Plain landscapes and objects can become from being mundane to unusual with the right angle, time of day, and lighting.
