Camera Basics Quiz


GROUP A

No grain
I made the ISO really low and took a picture of Erin's face.
Blurred Background
I focused the photo on Erin's face and made sure there was a long background.


  • ISO: 100
  • APERTURE: 5.0
  • SHUTTER SPEED: 1/6





Stopped Motion
I made the shutter speed small and Nate jumped.



  • ISO: 400
  • APERTURE: 5.0
  • SHUTTER SPEED: 1/40











  • ISO: 400
  • APERTURE: 5.0
  • SHUTTER SPEED: 1/60





  • ISO: 100
  • APERTURE: 10.0
  • Blurred Selfie
    Made the Shutter  speed really high and moved my body using a timer.
  • SHUTTER SPEED: 1.3






















I have learned that shutter speed makes picutres blurry and clear, aperture or F stop controls the lighting and ISO makes the photo not grainy.

  • Aperture: 4.5
  • Shutter Speed: 1/200







  • ISO: 800
  • Aperture: 11.0
  • Shutter Speed: 160





1. Aperture is the size of the opening in a lense when a picture is taken.
2. When the aperture is lower the picture is brighter and vice versa.
3. The higher the aperture the lower the shutter speed and vice versa.


SHUTTER SPEED

  • Aperture: 5.6
  • Shutter Speed: 1/100



  • ISO: 1600
  • Aperture: 5.0
  • Shutter Speed: 1/200






1. Amount of time that the shutter is open.

3. The higher the shutter speed the lower the aperture.

ISO

  • ISO: 1600
  • Aperture: 5.6

Me:)


Black and White Bo

Dear future boss of Bo,
           

            Hello. I would like you to meet my close friend Austin Robert Waggoner, also known as Bo. He is a very hard worker and loves taking pictures of things you don’t normally see and third world countries. He wishes he were taller because he has a strong passion for basketball. I’m guessing you will probably be some sort of athletic director because when Bo is older he dreams of being a basketball coach. When he is alone he loves reading novels, his favorite genre is romance.  If Bo is ever MIA you can most likely find him shooting hoops in his front yard. He hates Miley Cyrus and spiders.  Bo wishes he had more patience with his little brother, Jackson and he tends to take jokes too far to the point of making people angry with him.  If Bo had one super power it would be to fly so he could get “amazing sky high” photos.
