CAMERA CONTROLS

CREATIVE MODES:

M (Full Manual)- You set all the exposure settings.

AV (Aperture Valued)- You set the aperture and the Camera sets the shutter speed.

TV(Time Valued)- You set the shutter speed and the camera decides the aperture.

P(Program Shift) – Camera sets the exposure, lets you have some control over shutter speed, but there is no auto flash.

Fully Automated- User has no control. It has auto flash, and has an minimum shutter speed of 1/60.

BASIC MODES:

Portrait Mode- Priority is given to largest aperture.

Landscape Mode- Priority is given to smallest aperture.

Macro Mode- Similar to portrait mode.

Sports/Action Mode- Priority given to fastest possible shutter speed.

Night Mode- Like fully automatic but allows slower than 1/60 shutter speed.

No Flash- Like fully automatic, but doesn’t allow flash.

AV AND MACRO MODE:

BASIC MODE PICTURES:

FEATURED IMAGE:

I chose this image as my featured image because I like the contrast of colors in the picture and I like the way the portrait mode focuses on the subject of the photo.

BRACKETING:

I chose not to use bracketing because I wanted to focus on seeing what the different modes do to the pictures then to see what the exposure does to the pictures.

WHAT I LEARNED:

In this assignment I learned the importance of choosing the right mode when taking the pictures and how it affects the clearness of the pictures. I also learned what each of the camera control modes mean and when the appropriate time to use them is.
