Photography Made Simple - Fall

Exposure

100

These are the three elements of exposure

What are Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO

200

This element of exposure controls depth of field.

What is Aperture.

300

This element of exposure freezes action.

What is shutter speed.

400

1/500 @ F11 (ISO 200) is the same overall exposure as 1/250 @ F8 using ISO of?

What is ISO 800 (2 stops less light)

500

1/1000 @ F11 (ISO 400) is the same overall exposure as 1/500 @ F16 using ISO of?

ISO 400 (same exposure)

Auto Focus Modes

100

This focus mode is best when the subject is stationary.

What is Single Shot.

200

This focus mode is best when shooting continually moving subjects.

What is Tracking / Continuous / Servo

300

This focus mode is good for erratically moving subjects.

What is AI Focus / Predictive

400

This focus mode will lock-onto a subject, allowing you to recompose the frame.

What is single shot / one shot

500

This focus mode would be used for a Portrait

What is One Shot

Camera Modes

100

This mode allows the camera to set all variables

Auto

200

This mode allows you to set a desired aperture

Av or aperture priority

300

This mode allows you to change all the settings

Manual mode

400

This mode would be best used for capturing a moving object

Shutter priority

500

This mode allows the user to override auto settings

Program or AE Mode

Metering Modes

100

This mode reads just 3-5% of the image to calculate exposure

Spot 

200

This mode gives the whole scene equal weight

Average

300

This mode gives the center more weight than the rest of the scene

Center-weighted

400

This mode uses the camera's built-in intelligence to determine exposure

Evaluative / Matrix

500

This would be the best mode for capturing a wide landscape scene

Average

Lighting

100

Using a flash limits which aspect of exposure settings?

Shutter Speed (sync speed)

200

This terms refers to the variance between highlights and shadows in the scene

Dynamic range

300

This method is used to determine the relative brightness of subjects within a scene

Zone System

400

A default camera exposure is based on creating an exposure for this zone

Zone V

500

A tool for viewing the relative highlights, midtones, and shadows created by your camera, with peaks, valleys and sometimes clipping.
