THE CAMERA
Literally, room in Latin. The instrument with which photographs are taken, consisting, at least, of a light-tight box, a lens which admits focused light, and some device for holding the film in position. In a digital camera, the film is replaced by a light sensitive digital sensor.

LENS Light passing through a lens is inverted. The object photographed is turned upside down on the film or digital sensor. In a SLR camera, a set of mirrors called a “pentaprism” corrects this inversion.
During the exposure, the mirror in the SLR camera body flips up to allows light to pass through to the film or digital sensor.

SINGLE-LENS REFLEX (SLR) CAMERA
A single-lens reflex camera shows you the scene directly through the lens by employing a series of mirrors.

CONTROLLING THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT
SHUTTER Controls the amount of light by the length of time
it remains open
APERTURE(size of the lens opening) controls the brightness
of light that reaches the film
“STOP” – refers to a change in exposure, whether the shutter speed or aperture is changed
one “stop” more exposure means to double the light reaching the film
one “stop” less exposure means to half the light reaching the film

SHUTTER
Leaf Shutter Located inside the lens Quieter than a focal-plane
shutter Slower shutter speeds than a
focal-plane shutter
(only up to 1/500 sec.)

SHUTTER Focal Plane Shutter Located inside the
camera body, directly in front of the film plane
Allows for faster shutter speeds
(1/8000 sec.) When using a flash,
must use slower shutter speed

-Each shutter speed is marked as the bottom part of the fraction of a second that the shutter remains open
2 (1/2 second)
8 (1/8 second)
-Each full stop shutter setting is half or double the time of the next one
B (bulb) – shutter stays open as long as the release button is pushed down
T (time) – opens the shutter with one press of the release, and closes with another
*1/60 hand held

SHUTTER SPEED Panning
During the exposure, the camera is moved in the same direction as the subject.
Resulting in a reasonably sharp subject and a blurred background

APERTUREEach f/stop number can be though of as the bottom part of a fraction
The larger the f/stop number, the smaller the lens opening
f/11 is a smaller opening than f/4
Each full stop aperture setting allows half or double the amount of light as the next one
f/1.4 f/2 f/2.8 f/4 f/5.6 f/8 f/11 f/16 f/22

APERTURE
The area from near to far in a scene that is acceptably sharp in a photograph
![Page 18: Camera Basics - Media Center IMAC](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042601/55b1bc32bb61eb1c3b8b47b6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DEPTH OF FIELD
The smaller the aperture size, the more that a scene will be sharp from near to far (deep depth of field).
The larger the aperture size, the less that a scene will be sharp from near to far (shallow depth of field).
f/22 provides more depth of field than f/4

SHUTTER and APERTURE
To get a correctly exposed picture, you need a combination of shutter speed and aperture
Each shutter speed lets in twice as much light as the next faster speed
• 1/60 lets in 2x as much light as 1/125
Each aperture setting lets in twice as much light as the next smaller opening (larger-numbered setting)
• f/4 lets in 2x as much light as f/5.6
