A+
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/250 @ f/5.6 = 1/500 @
f/22.
Answer: False
⩥ The ISO should you choose for inside/low light photography is 100 or
200 (whatever is your camera's lowest ISO settings).
Answer: False
⩥ What side of the f/stop scale would allow only one flower, in a field of
flowers, to be in focus?
Answer: the f/2.8 side
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/250 @ f/5.6 = 1/500 @ f/4.
Answer: True
⩥ In order to achieve the shallowest depth of field (only one thing in
focus) in your picture, set your camera to around ________ or the flower
icon or portrait icon.
Answer: f/2.8
,⩥ In order to achieve maximum depth of field (everything in focus) in
your picture set your camera to __________ or the mountain icon.
Answer: f/22
⩥ In order to freeze a fast moving subject, set your shutter speed to
1/1000 (or higher) or choose the running man icon.
Answer: True
⩥ Stop - A step up or down in the exposure.
for example: 1/125 is one stop more light than 1/250
for example: f11 is one stop more light than f/16
Answer: True
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/30 @ f/16 = 1/500 @ f/4.
Answer: True
⩥ Listed below is the shutter speed scale. Which shutter speed is
missing?
1 1/2 1/4 1/8 _____ 1/30 1/60 1/125 1/250 1/500 1/1000
Answer: 1/15
⩥ Listed below is the f/stop scale. Identify the missing f/stop:
, f/1.4 f/2 f/2.8 f/4 f/5.6 f/8 _____ f/16 f/22
Answer: f/11
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/60 @ f/4 = 1/125@ f/2.8.
Answer: True
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/60 @ f/2.8 = 1/125 @ f/2.
Answer: True
⩥ If your goal is to have the waterfall blurry from movement but have
everything that is not moving razor sharp you should mount your camera
on a tripod (or some other steady surface) take a meter reading keeping
your shutter speed around ______ or choose the slow/sync flash icon.
Answer: 1/4
⩥ Depth of field is governed by three factors: aperture, lens focal length
and shooting distance.
Answer: True
⩥ When solving for equivalent exposures, 1/1000 @ f/2.8 = 1/8 @ f/32.
Answer: True
⩥ 1/125 @ f/4 = 1/60 @ f/4
