|
What part of the eye is synonymes with the aperature of the lense?
|
Pupil
|
|
|
What does aperature do?
|
Determine how much light gets in the speed of the lense, how big the aperature opens up.
|
|
|
Focal length
|
distance from the front of the lense to the mirror
|
|
|
If your photographing a white thing and your shooting automatic the picture will look...
|
dark gray
|
|
|
Tripod give you...
|
the ability to shoot at slower shutter speeds
|
|
|
3 types of light meters
|
1. incident(measures amount of light falling on it) 2. reflective (measures light reflecting off suvject) 3. flash (measures short bursts. -Most used is reflective.
|
|
|
if you go from f/8 to f/4 you let in
|
4x more light (every stop doubles)
|
|
|
2 types of shutters
|
1. focal plain 2. leaf shutter. Focal plain used most
|
|
|
Shallow depth of field means...
|
small f stop
|
|
|
3 things that determine depth of field
|
1. distance from camera to subject 2. f-stop 3. Focal length of lense (zoomed in or not)
|
|
|
image size
|
physical dimensions of the image
|
|
|
macro lense
|
for shooting small things close up
|
|
|
to determine ISO
|
how much light is availiable, how pixelated the image can be, output (how big the image will be)
|
|
|
Photo of white scene- to get correct exposure
|
Let in more light (f8-f4)
|
|
|
to make sure colors are accurate
|
set the white balance
|
|
|
autofocus is good for
|
sports, fast moving action
|
|
|
35 mm camera means
|
the chip size
|
|
|
50 mm is closest to..
|
normal, what real life looks like
|
|
|
wide angel camera is
|
24 mm or smaller
|
|
|
slowest shutter speed with out camera shake is
|
1/60
|
|
|
long focal length means
|
you can shoot at faster shudder speed and not get camera shake
|
|
|
1/125 to 1/500 means
|
less light by 4x
|
|
|
f/5.6 and 1/60, to get less light
|
stop down, get less exposure
|
|
|
1/60 f8 and 1/250 =?
|
f/4
|
|
|
Elements of design
|
line, shape, color, value, texture, form
|
|
|
Rule of 1/3
|
be placed on crossing points to be more interesting
|
|
|
a uv filter or skylight fileter does what?
|
Blocks light reflecting to make it look crisper, used to protect lense
|
|
|
flash has same light temperature as what
|
daylight
|
|
|
3 terms to describe color
|
hue, value, saturation/intensity
|
|
|
4 steps of critique
|
describe, interperate, evaluate, theorize
|
|
|
polarizing filter
|
for glare, crystals two lense block glard
|
|
|
to eliminate red eye
|
change the angle of the flash, bounce flash off of something, rais ambient light in the room
|
|
|
Types of liglht meters and what they do.
|
1. Reflective meter: measures specific areas and takes an avg of the light 2. Centere weighted: looks at center of frame and takes avg of light.
|
|
|
Cable release
|
for a long shutter speed without having to touch it.
|
|
|
Shutter speed
|
how fast the shutter is
|
|
|
f-stop
|
size aperature, how wide lens opens.
|
|
|
light meter:
|
gives equations, wants to equal middle gray value not color. When you can predict middle gray then you can make something what it is.
|
|
|
3 diff types of light meter
|
1. incident (amt of light that falls on subject) 2. reflective (amt of light reflected off of a subject) 3. flash (does both, has capability of measuring short bursts of light. (reflective is in most cameras, incident is more accurate)
|
|
|
Iso stands for
|
international standards organization. It's how light sensitive the film was, now how light sensitive the ccd chip is. The higher ISO the lower the image quality.
|
|
|
"good photograph"
|
concept or idea communicated, makes you think or feel something.
|
|
|
With telephoto lense
|
camera shake is exaggerated
|
|
|
elements of design
|
line, color, texture, value, space, shape/form
|
|
|
Principles of design
|
balance, contrast, harmony/unity, variety, juxtaposition, repetition, pattern, proportion, perspective, movement, rhythm, space, time, form
|
|
|
Difference between eyeball and camera
|
1. reality vs the photo. recreation of reality 2. Cropping/the camera window 3. 3d vs 2d 4. contrast limitation of traditional and digital photo materials 5. time and space relationship 6. optical vs. natural vision 7. depth of field control
|
|
|
4 steps to critique:
|
describe, interpret, evaluate, theorize
|
|
|
5 types of color schemes
|
