My Experience To Playing With The Camera Of The Canon

Improved Essays
Today, I decided to play with my own camera of the ESO Canon. I thought that I have learned manual setting on my mentor’s Leica camera. So I wanted to try with my own camera, since it came with manual settings. First, I tried set different ISO, aperture, and shutter-speed numbers. I have to be honest that it wasn’t easy, because I couldn’t tell if is too dark or too bright. I just had to do my best to guess the ISO and shutter speed. With my first try, the first picture was too dark, so I turn ISO number up. As a result, it was much better, but still need more light. Then I played with all the settings for a while until it was the right light I wanted. In the end, I liked the ISO of 800, aperture of 5.0, and shutter-speed of 1/100 seconds. …show more content…
As soon I set the right setting on my Canon, I started to take pictures of my dog Honey first, who was just chillin over there. She was very calm and it is great for me to take shots of her like that. I took a little short video of me take picture with cannon and Honey. There was no one there with me so I decided to take a video of myself. In the video, there will be me take pictures of Honey with the my Canon. After I took pictures of Honey, I also tried to take pictures of my dog Heidi. I took her outside where there were a lot of leafs. I chose that place because I think it would be a very pretty picture with all the leafs in the background. This time, I actually called my mom to help me take picture of me taking pictures of Heidi. Then later, I wanted my mom shot a video of me doing my project too. When I was taking pictures of Heidi, she wouldn’t look at me at all. Even though I’m making different noises for getting her attentions, but she still didn’t pay attention to …show more content…
I didn’t have any treats with me, so I just let her be pertaining that I’m not pay attention to her. For a while, I started to take pictures of her just standing there. After many shots, I took her to a different environment again. I saw there was a big wood there that give me an idea of letting her two paws stand on it. In my mind, a picture of her standing on the wood would be very cute and precious. So I instructed her to there and let her pose. As usual, she wouldn’t look at the camera, but I took pictures of her that way anyway. When I saw a chance of her looking at me, I would take the picture fast. I was so glad that I set the shutter speed of 1/100’s of a second, because it is very useful when you want to capture an object fast. I knew she would look at the camera for only like a second that she would be caught off guard and to look somewhere else. Overall, today was a great experience. I liked the idea of taking pictures with my own camera. I feel so accomplished to be able to apply what I learned to use on a different camera. If I never learned the camera with manual settings, I probably would use my own camera in an automatic setting for

    The non-verbal norm that I decided to break was; invading a persons personal space. The person I decided to use in this experiment was my friend Annabel, the same person that I talked about in the first assignment. Even though we are close friends we do not have much contact, no hugs or anything. Therefore our personal boundaries are the same as any other set of people: six inches to a foot. Even though we are around each other a lot I decided the best time to break this non-verbal social normality was while in a sauna.…
