shutter definitions

1. Shutter- is a device that allows light to pass for a limited period of time, for the purpose of exposing photographic film to light to capture an  image of a scene. A shutter can also be used to allow pulses of light to pass outwards.

1. Shutter Speeds (write out the speeds and explain what they mean)-  is a common term used to discuss exposure time, the effective length of time a camera's shutter is open. The total exposure is proportional to this exposure time, or duration of light reaching the film or image sensor.

1. Shutter Priority- refers to a setting on some cameras that allows the user to choose a specific shutter speed while the camera adjusts the aperture to ensure correct exposure.

4. Exposure & how to set your camera for a good exposure-is the total amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium (photographic film or image sensor) during the process of taking a photograph. Exposure is measured in lux seconds, and can be computed from exposure value and scene luminance over a specified area. In order to set your camera for a good exposure, you have to determine the correct exposure time and try not to overexposure or underexposure. Also, you have to to control the appropriate amount of light from the subject that is allowed to fall on the film, so that it falls into an appropriate region of the film's characteristic curve and get an  acceptable exposure.

4. Bulb- is a shutter speed setting on an adjustable camera that allows for long exposure times under the direct control of the photographer. With this setting, the shutter simply stays open as long as the shutter release button remains depressed.

6. Cable Release- are the mechanisms attached to cameras that allow photographers to snap photos from a distance.

6. Tripod- used to stabilize a camera, or to support flashes or other photographic equipment.

8. Light Meter- is a device used to measure the amount of light. In photography, a light meter is often used to determine the proper exposure for a photograph.

9. Bracketing-  the general technique of taking several shots of the same subject using different or the same camera settings. Bracketing is useful and in situations that make it difficult to obtain a satisfactory image with a single shot.

9. Hot Shoe- a mounting point on the top of a camera to attach a flash unit.

different kinds of pinhole cameras

pinhole camera

pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens and with a single small aperture and effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side.

Cameras and Parts of the Camera
find examples and define:

1. SLR:

A single-lens reflex (SLR) camera is a camera that typically uses a semi-automatic moving mirror system that permits the photographer to see exactly what will be captured by the film or digital imaging system (after a very small delay), as opposed to pre-SLR cameras where the view through the viewfinder could be significantly different from what was captured on film.

2. TLR:

A twin-lens reflex camera (TLR) is a type of camera with two objective lenses of the same focal length.

3. Lens: 

A camera lens (also known as photographic lens, objective lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.

4. Shutter:

A shutter is a device that allows light to pass for a determined period of time, for the purpose of exposing photographic film or a light-sensitive electronic sensor to light to capture a permanent image of a scene.

5. Shutter speed control:

The aperture diaphragm of a lens (bigger or smaller values) AND timing (open and close) of the camera's shutter curtain - BOTH perform the tasks of regulating the amount of light entering the camera and expose onto the film.

6. Aperture:

In optics, an aperture is a hole or an opening through which light travels. More specifically, the aperture of an optical system is the opening that determines the cone angle of a bundle of rays that come to a focus in the image plane. The aperture determines how collimated the admitted rays are, which is of great importance for the appearance at the image plane.

7. ASA :

The ASA stands for American Standards Assoc. It is also the older film speed rating.

8. ASA Dial:

9. Shutter Button:

In photography the shutter-release button (sometimes just shutter release or shutter button) is a button found on many cameras, used to take a picture. When pressed, the shutter of the camera is "released", so that it opens to capture a picture, and then closes, allowing an exposure time as determined by the shutter speed setting (which may be automatic).

10. Rewind Knob:

This is usually rest around the pentaprism of the camera (but some were designed around the film rewind knob). It has an electrical contact which mated with a contact in the mounting foot of the flash unit.

photo reflection

1. Where did you set up your camera first?

I set up my camera in front of theater backdoor in cafeteria.

2. Why did you select the area to survey?

I selected this area because in cafeteria there were many people who were doing all different things. It looked very interesting to watch those people.

3. How long did you remain in the same area?

I remained in the same area for 5 min.

4. What sort of images did you capture?

I captured two people sitting on the bench and children outside the school.

5. Were you satisfied with the results? Why or why not?

I was not satisfied with the results that I took pictures because my pictures did not have interesting position and action.

6. Describe your favorite image; explain why it is your favorite.

My favorite image is a girl who was studying. Even though I did not take a picture in the cafeteria, I like it the best. The reason I like that picture is the proportion of a girl and the door beside the girl seemed very unique and interesting to me.

7. How did people react to you?

She did not notice that I was taking pictures of her.

8. How did you feel while you were taking the photos? Anxious, awkward…

I felt very anxious about taking photo of her secretly so she could not feel uncomfortable about taking her pictures.
