PHOTOGRAPHY         

Photography is an art. 

I mostly use Aperture and the manual to play with the colors and the background to make wonders with my photos, The settings depend on the nature and the lighting with which the settings can be played. 

The recommended camera for a beginner D5000 series and D7000 series or above for advanced photographers. 

My photographs are tuned with aperture priority with an ISO (100) in bright light and at low light with an ISO of 1600 or higher (Aperture plays the light game), with a focal of  F/2.8 or F/5.6. 

ISO CONTROLS  

Speaking about ISO controls,  

ISO 100: Outdoor, bright light, best quality, no noise

ISO 400: Indoor, artificial indoor light, less noise

ISO 1600: Concert halls, not enough light, medium noise

ISO 6400: Indoor sports, not enough light, fast-moving object

SHUTTER SPEED

A shutter speed is the amount of light that is denser to the sensor, In simple words its the amount of light that enters the camera lens. Recommended shutters are 1/60 sec for bright light photography and 1/160 sec for low light. Few Trailed settings are 1/4 sec, 1/15 sec  1/60 sec and 1/125 sec.

STREET PHOTOGRAPHY (SETTINGS)

Aperture at 1/8 sec to 1/11 sec

Exposure has to be under control.
