      Manual Mode Cheat Sheet

       Review:


      Aperture: controls light and depth of field. (Measured in f-stops)


      Shutter Speed: controls light and the passage of time. (Measured in seconds/fractions of a second)


      ISO: controls how sensitive the camera is to light.



      10/21

      Focus: Copy the following definition into your journal.

      Shutter Speed: Shutter speed is the length of time the camera shutter is open, exposing light onto the camera sensor. 

      Objectives:

      • Correct 4 images from each activity (Water Balloons, Bubbles, Glitter, Pompoms) =16 total (No Contact sheets for this assignemnt)
      • Extra Credit to anyone who photographs Mrs. Slaney's beautiful flowers that are set up as a still life. (4 corrections & Contact Sheets)
      • These can also count for a still life that you have missed OR you use these for a still life that you might miss in the future.

       Focus: Shallow or great depth of field?



      Objectives:
      • Introduce Shutter Speed Unit
      • Photo Journal 3

      Closure:  True or False: f22 would create a shallow depth of field.

      10/14

      Objectives:
      • Still Life 7 - CS + 4 corrected 
      • Still Life 6 - CS + 4 corrected 
      • Color assignment (CS + 6 corrected) 
      • Photo Journal 2 (Due Monday 10/17)
      • Image corrections (Due 10/28 - new date)


        ClosureCould this lens have taken this picture?


        10/13

         Focus:   True of False: F 2.8 would create a shallow depth of field.



        Objectives:
        • Photograph Still Life 7 - CS + 4 corrected 
        • Still Life 6 - CS + 4 corrected 
        • Color assignment (CS + 6 corrected) 3 shallow & 3 great DOF
        • Photo Journal 2 (Due Monday 10/17)
        • Image corrections (Due 10/28 - new date)

        Closure: Review this scenario and describe what the photographer should do?
        The camera is set on aperture priority mode.  The photographer wants a shallow depth of field, so the aperture is set on f.5.6.  The picture is too bright, and the photographer has determined that there is too much light. What could the photographer do to remedy this issue?  Should he/she change the f-stop to f-22 or f-2.8?  Explain your answer.
