ISO

ISO 200


ISO 6400

1. A higher so can have the advantage to capture a scene faster. For example ISO 100 captures in 1 second but ISO 3200 captures in 1/32 seconds.So at Sportevenets where the sparklers are running around and reacting fast it is better to take pictures with a higher ISO.

2. When there is plenty of light, you should always use the lowest ISO, to retain the most detail and to have the highest image quality.

3. If you want to capture a fast scene in a freeze emotion you should use the highest ISO especially when its dark ate the place. 

Shutter Speed

High Shutter Speed


Slow Shutter Speed

1. Day                                           Night                         
    a) Slow Shutter Speed              a) Slow Shutter Speed
    b) Slow Shutter Speed              b) Slow Shutter Speed
    c) High Shutter Speed              c) Slow Shutter Speed
    d) High Shutter Speed              d) Slow Shutter Speed
    e) Slow Shutter Speed              e) Slow Shutter Speed
    f) High Shutter Speed               f) Slow Shutter Speed

2. If the camera is set to Auto mode,the aperture and both shutter speed will be selected by the camera. You can also shoot in Aperture Priority mode,where you set the lens aperture, while the camera sets the shutter speed without your help. Also one is to set the camera to Shutter Priority mode and the camera sets the shutter and selects the aperture by herself. And by setting the camera to Manual mode you have both shutter speeds and the aperture. 

Aperture

F2.8


F16

1. We can relate the human eye to the aperture, every camera that we know of today is designed like human eyes.

2. The smaller the Aperture a smaller f-stop, the higher the Aperture larger f-stop.

3.  If the aperture is small it brings all the object in foreground and background in focus, while a bigger aperture means the background is sharp and the object are clad and isolated from the background. 

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

This is a picture from an advertising for a Make-up company.
In this picture everything is perfect, her Make-up, her skin,her lips, eyes to her tooth.
This picture let us think when we buy and use this Make-up we look so perfect.
But the truth is this woman is maybe very beautiful but she has something unperfect like everybody. She is a human like everybody else but the picture manipulates us because we want to be perfect.
For me this is unethical

.
This is a manipulated photo, but everybody can see that this is not the reality.
This is fascinatig  art.
