Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO.

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture? The camera lens

2. Finish this sentence - The smaller the aperture (represented by a larger f-number, such as f/16), the higher the aperture value, and the less light enters the camera.

3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?Aperture controls the amount of light it takes in affecting how sharp the background/foreground is making the depth of field reliant on aperture.

List the three settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed



1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game?A higher ISO allows the camera to be more sensitive to light and better capture things like games at night.

2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO? Low ISO is suitable for well-lit environments where there's no need for increased sensitivity to light.

3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?  High ISO settings allow for faster shutter speeds good for freezing motion in dynamic scenes like sports photography.
