Choose a rule of composition and take a photo
Rule: Framing | 1/50 sec f/5.6 ISO-3200
Feedback
Would fit 'framing' better if body wasn't visible.
Notes
Use the viewfinder as much as possible from now on.
To adjust dioptics, first use autofocus, once the camera is focused then adjust the dioptics until the image is perfectly in focus through the viewfinder.
Project 1 is done individually.
2 groups will be created to create 2 projects based on the project 1 submissions.
Homework is to take a photo using each of the composition rules. Put them in a Google Slides presentaton. Send a link to Antony in class for exhibition and feedback from peers in week 3.
Create a shot list of 10 images to produce into a story.
Put ISO, aperture and shutter tests into LJ.
