The word Photography comes from two Greek words that mean "writing with light” Perfect Exposure Goal: To obtain the amount of light needed to create the desired image using the combination of these three variables: Aperture Shutter Speed ISO KEEP IT SIMPLE

CAMERA MODES P = program mode Subject Modes Portrait Macro Landscape Sports Night AV or A = aperture priority mode TV or S = shutter priority mode *M = manual mode

P=Program mode AV or A= aperture priority mode TV or S= shutter priority mode M=manual mode WHO DECIDES WHAT IN EACH MODE? APERTURE AND SHUTTER SPEED You decided: NONE.

WHAT YOUR CAMERA IS METERING FOR

Aperture is size of the opening of your lens. It is used to control the amount of light reaching the sensor of your camera and controls depth of field, or area in focus. APERTURE

The smaller the number = larger opening, more light and more shallow depth of field The larger the number = smaller opening, less light and greater depth of field

- Shutter speed is unit of measurement which determines how long the shutter remains open as the picture is taken. -Shutter speeds are measured in a fraction of a second, so 125 is 1/125 of a second. -Shutter speed controls the amount of light reaching the sensor and can freeze or blur motion.

-International Organization for Standardization -Is a measure of how sensitive your camera is to light -The lower number, the lower your camera’s response is to light -The higher number, the more sensitive it is to light -Generally you’ll want to keep as low a number as possible to ensure a less noisy or grainy image ISO
