SLR Lenses (pt 1)
A type of lighting that is more flattering for most portraits.
What is soft lighting?
A type of lighting that is often shadowy or harsh.
What is hard lighting?
A good type of lens to bring out if you're shooting wildlife photography.
What is a telephoto lens with lots of zoom?
A good type of lighting for documentary interview shots where you want to show a flattering portrait image.
What is soft lighting?
Two important tools we've been using for long exposure photography.
What is a tripod and a remote?
The most important purpose of hoods, other than protecting a camera. DAILY DOUBLE BONUS: Why are hoods different for every lens?
What is to block glare from the sun? DAILY DOUBLE ANSWER: Every lens has a different circumference. Also, every lens has a different focal length, so some hoods are longer if they aren't in frame with that focal length.
A type of lighting setup where a single strong light is placed above the subject, creating soft even light on their face and a small shadow around their nose.
What is butterfly lighting?
The system/unit for measuring the perceived "color" of lighting.
Temperature, measured in Kelvin.
OPEN PHOTO #1: The type of lens you should use to get a shot like that? (name the type, and maybe a possible measurement of focal length?)
What is a wide angle lens? Anything 8 - 35 mm would do for part 2.
Note: Mr. B, pass around your favorite lens! The type of lens this is, and what it might be good for. Describe any distinguishing features on it (prime or zoom, fx or dx, etc.)
What is the Nikon 18-35mm WIDE angle lens, opens to f/3.5 (or 4.5 at some focal lengths), 77mm ring circumference, FX lens size.
The reason why we refer to lenses with their "speed."
What is the aperture abilities to get the same exposure with a faster or slower shutter speed? (a faster lens allows for a lower aperture, meaning you can take the same exposure with a faster shutter speed. A slower lens requires a lower speed because it's aperture doesn't give as much light!)
What the temperature is of cool lights versus hot lights. (note the wording, here!)
What is HIGHER? (blue is higher or "hotter" in Kelvin temperature than warm yelllows/oranges).
A way to create hard lighting.
What is using fewer, stronger, brighter, higher-angled lights.
The technical term for brightness within an image.
What is luminance?
Three of the most important factors in determining what a lens will shoot. (I'm going to list 4, you must name 3 of them!)
What is the Focal Length, aperture (aka speed), lens circumference, and sensor size.
The names of each of the three lights involved in a three-point lighting setup?
What is a key light, fill light, and back light?
Three main ways of diffusing light (I've listed several).
What is bouncing light, reflecting, using diffusers, softening, flags, directing light, soft boxes, etc.
The way camera flashes get more or less power, or luminance, in a photo.
What is speeding up or slowing down the flash speed? (not increasing brightness/luminance)
