|
What are three ways to get shallow depth of field? |
- wide aperture - get close to subject - Long lens |
|
What is the white balance setting used for? |
To get rid of colour casts caused by different light sources. To make sure the whites in the photos are white. |
|
What are two ways your light meter can get fooled? |
- Backlight with matrix metering - Colours that aren't 18% grey |
|
What are two ways to freeze motion? |
- Fast/High shutter speed - Flash, when the flash is brighter than the room lights |
|
When hand-holding a camera, what's the rule to determine the shutter speed when using a particular lens? |
The length of the lens or faster |
|
What's the slowest shutter speed to use when hand-holding regardless? |
1/60 |
|
Define depth of field |
The area in focus from in front of to behind the subject |
|
What are three characteristics of a wide angle lens? |
- Under 50mm - Wide depth of field - Vanishing point is closer to the camera |
|
What are three characteristics of a telephoto lens? |
- Greater than 50mm - Shallow depth of field - Farther vanishing point |
|
What are three types of metering systems? |
- Matrix: all of viewfinder - Spot: 100% circle in the middle - Central weighted: 75% of circle in the middle, 25% of the rest |
|
What are three examples of selective metering? |
- Bracketing, taking photos at a few stops to get different exposures to get a few different settings? - Metering off something grey in the same light as the subject - Metering off a subjects face
|
|
Explain how to pan. |
- Slow shutter speed - Move with the subject |
|
What's reverse panning? |
- Focusing on the background as the subject passes in front - Slow shutter speed - Tripod |
|
What are three ways to achieve simplicity? |
- Simple background - Crop out the crap - Shallow depth of field |
|
What are five types of graphics elements of composition? |
- Leading lines - Diagonal lines - Triangular patterns - Perspective - Framing |
|
What are the settings for normal flash photography where flash is the main light source? |
- ISO at 400 - Shutter Speed at 1/60 - Aperture at f5.6 - Metering System is Matrix |
|
When using direct flash how would you get rid of a reflection? |
- Move subject away from the reflection - Change your angle |
|
How do you get rid of shadows behind your subject? |
- Move subject away from the wall - Shoot from above, horizontally - Slow shutter speed |
|
How do you use bounce flash? |
- Use bounce card - Bounce halfway between you and your subject - Average ceiling height |
|
Why is it better to use bounce flash than regular flash? |
Gets rid of shadows, reflections, red eye and harsh light |
|
What does fill flash do? |
Gets rid of harsh shadows such as raccoon eyes
|
|
How do you shoot fill flash? |
- Change shutter speed to 1/200 just using enough flash to fill shadows - Meter off background - Change aperture - Bracket with flash compensation |
|
Why do shooters need to get the names of people who can be identified in pictures, for publications? |
Getting consent for publications. |
