Shutter Speed Vocabulary

  1. Shutter- Allow light to pass through
  2. Shutter Speeds- The faster the shutter the more light it takes longer it takes to develop
  3. Shutter Priority- A specific shutter speed while the camera adjusts its aperture to ensure correct exposure.
  4. Exposure- How to set your camera for a good exposure-
  5. Aperture- A hole opening that light travels in
  6. ISO/ASA- Speed with which your film or digital camera responds to light so the higher the ISO/ASA the more sensitive toward light and film

  7. Bulb- A faster it allowed you to capture 1moving subject faster
  8. Cable Release- Trip the shutter mechanically while being isolated from the camera to reduce camera shake or to operate the camera from a distance
  9. Tripod- Stables the camera to avoid shaking.
  10. Bracketing- Several shot of camera using different camera mode/settings

Pinhole Reflection


Pinhole camera looks easy but its not.
You need the skills, the perfect timing to make a good picture. 
In the end of this assignment, I learned that once you got the perfect timing (that day)
all your other picture will expose properly. 
The hole in the camera matters too if the hole is smaller it exposed less.
If the hole is bigger it exposed more which changes the time too. 
The timing of the picture are different every time i get a different camera and everyday weather is different its a bit hard to get the right timing. 
The problem with my picture was that i wasn't steady enough i keep on shifting and after my picture become blurry and not focused properly.
 Most of the pictures that i took wasn't focused properly and was blurry
but the in the dark room it was a lot of fun. 
Seeing how the pictures gets developed, putting them in chemicals was really interesting and they`re one of the assignments that i really enjoyed.

4. Shutter -  a device that allows light to pass for a determined period of time and capture a  image of a scene that you wish to be taken.
5. Shutter speed control - exposing photographic film or a light-sensitive electronic sensor to light and to capture the permanet image of the scene you wish to take
6. Aperture - hole or an opening through which light travels
7. ASA/ISO/Film Speed - the speed of film or camera responces to light
8. ASA/ISO Dial -a dial used on digital cameras to change the camera's mode
9. Shutter Button - the button use to take pictures
10. Rewind Knob - the button on top of the camera for rewinding the film back in to a cassette after the film is exposed
11. Self Timer - delay between pressing the shutter release
12. Counter -the devise for recording the number of film famees exposed
13. Hot shoe - a mounting point on the top of a camera to attach a flash unit

Pinhole Camera And How Does It Work?


A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens.
Its built with a single small aperture.
Its a light proof box with a small hole in one side.
Light passes though the hole and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box.
Its kind of like a human eye in bright light.
The camera use a small aperture.
It creates some picture like the ones below.

B.C. Artist

Daniel Bouman
This artist interest me because he said people learn quickly when they are enjoying themselves.
The main reason is to have fun! 
But, equally as important is the learning experience that only a pinhole camera can provide.

Emphasis Technique

Leading Lines
Lines in a photograph like a bridge, a pathway,a fence
 lead the eye to the focal point and draw your eyes to the person

 Rules of Thrids
The picture is dividing the scene into nine parts.
it moves the frame so cookies ants the ant are slightly off-centre

Framing
Brings attention to the bird by placing frame around it using things like wires.

Contrast
The comb because its a different color.
It creates contrast and emphasis and directs the viewer's attention.


 Repetition
Banana cream filling has a repeating shapes or pattern.
It leads a person's eye more effective to the simple subject.
