Camera Settings.

What are the main settings?

The main three settings are; Shutter speed, Aperture, and ISO. Aperture is the opening behind the lens that determines how much light passes through the iris diaphram, this controls how much light is let in. Shutter speed is how fast the shutter opens and closes, taking the pictures, the faster the shutter speed the less motion blur and darker it gets, and the slower the shutter speed the more motion blur there is. ISO is the light sensitivity of the camera, the higher the ISO the more sensitive the camera sensor is to light, for example, if you have an ISO of 6400 you will be able to capture the stars with the right settings. 

Picture Examples

These examples show different settings and what they look like in pictures, We start out with pictures that represent: correct exposure, overexposure, and underexposure. The next set represents movement in slow and fast shutter speeds and the last two show us short and great depths of field. 

If you click on the images there will be short descriptions depicting of what the image shows.
