1. [intensive] getting the picture THE CAMERA

2. Let there be light! All photography is based on light Exposure is the total amount of light allowed to fall on the film/image sensor

3. Too much light creates an over- bright image with white spots: parts of the image are Over-Exposed Too little light creates an under-bright image with black spots: parts of the image are Under-Exposed EXPOSURE

4. Exposure can be controlled mainly through two lens settings: Aperture… … and Shutter Speed

5. APERTURE Aperture: How wide the hole is to let the light in. The bigger the f stop F1.4 the more light it lets in. The smaller the F stop f.22 the less light it lets in.

6. DEPTH OF FIELD Is what is in focus. Smaller number Aperture F2 is a larger opening and gives a shallow depth of field. (Only 1 object in focus/background is blurry) Larger number Aperture f 22 is a smaller opening and gives a greater depth of field. (Everything is in focus).

7. SHUTTER SPEED allowing more time letting light in, which can help in dark environments and create artistic blur effects with movement Shutter Speed: Measured in fractions of seconds. The smaller (1/2000) the fraction the faster the shutter speed. This is good when you want to freeze action. The larger the fraction (1/30) the slower the shutter speed allowing more time letting light in, which can help in dark environments and create artistic blur effects with movement Slow shutter Fast shutter

8. ISO ISO: Sensitivity to light. The higher the ISO the more light it captures. The lower ISO captures less light it captures and gives you more detail. In a darker room you use a higher ISO and when you’re outside on a sunny day you use a lower ISO. ISO 100-1800 Low ISO Low ISO, Long Exposure High ISO, Long Exposure The lower the ISO the better the quality of the photo. But you need a lot of light. Indoor: 800-1600 Outdoor: 100-400

9. HOW TO HOLD A CAMERA The way you hold your camera can help ensure you get a good picture. Blur is caused by the movement of either the subject or the camera. You need to hold the camera as steady as possible. Hold the camera's handgrip in your right hand and cradle the camera body or lens with your left. Keep your elbows propped lightly against your torso for support and place one foot half a pace ahead of the other to keep your upper body stable. This is a steadier position than holding the camera away from your face.

10. If it's windy or your shutter speed's getting slow (1/100 or lower) try to find something to lean your body against, like a tree or a pole. You can also place your elbows on a low wall or table. You may not always have a tripod with you, but you have a bipod—yourself. Do everything you can to be as solid a platform as possible for your camera, and it will reward you with sharper pictures.
