Understanding Exposure
photo tips :: september 2013
The hustle and bustle of summer has finally come to a close. Kids are back in school and I’m gearing up for busy fall season. I skipped my August newsletter to focus on design projects, but previous photo tips can always be viewed on my blog.
Like other creative mediums, photography is about telling a story. You have to have something you want to say or something you want to express. Your camera is the tool that you use to express it. There are three settings on your camera that will affect the exposure. They are called Aperature, Shutter Speed, and ISO.
Exposure = Aperture (amount of light made available to record an image) + Shutter Speed (the length of time the light is made available to record an image) + ISO (sensitivity to light). |
