2 Competition Time We reward our most diligent students Shaw Academy Lifetime Membership Prize - Draw during lesson 8 Attend 50%+ of the lessons live

3 Lesson 4 Course Agenda Controlling Motion Shutter Speeds Controlling Depth of Field - Apertures Summary Course Interaction Q & A

4 Why learn about controlling motion? Lack of Creative Control Limited Creative Potential Lack of Confidence in Skills Inconsistent Results

5 Why learn about controlling depth of field? Unable to fulfil your creative vision Lack of ability to control exposure Lack of photographic vocabulary

6 The Camera

7 Focal Plane Shutter Shutter button Shutter Speed Dial

8 Focal Plane Shutter

9 Shutter in DSLR

10 Shutter in DSLR Mirror in up position Shutter position Sensor Light entering the lens

11 Shutter Speeds The cameras shutter controls the duration that light is entering the camera and exposing the sensor. The length of time that the shutter is open is known as the shutter speed If we need more light The shutter will be open for a longer duration If we need less light the shutter will be open for a shorter duration Shutter Speeds are measured in seconds and fractions of a second

12 Common Shutter Speeds Slower 1/4-1/8-1/15-1/30-1/60-1/125-1/250-1/500-1/1000-1/2000-1/4000-1/8000 Faster

13 How Shutter Speeds appear on the camera Fractions of a second Seconds

14 How Shutter Speeds appear on the camera Shutter speed expressed as Fraction

15 Why Change Shutter Speeds MOTION

16 Controlling Motion 1/4-1/8-1/15-1/30-1/60-1/125-1/250-1/500-1/1000-1/2000-1/4000-1/8000

17 Controlling Motion 1/4-1/8-1/15-1/30-1/60-1/125-1/250-1/500-1/1000-1/2000-1/4000-1/8000

32 Apertures More Light Less Light Aperture Blades

33 Apertures in Action

34 F Stops Apertures are expressed as F. Numbers or F Stops Each lens will have a certain range of standard aperture sizes

35 Common Apertures F Stops F/1 F/1.4 F/2 F/2.8 F/4 F/5.6 F/8 F/11 F/16 F/22 F/32

36 How F Stops appear on Camera
