2. Your paper must be single spaced, 12 pt. font, and no changing the margins. You need to take up the entire page.

Camera Modes Assignment



Camera Modes Assignmnet

Due Monday November 19th (B day)

Tuesday November 20th (A day)


 

Objectives: This assignment deals with the basic camera modes of your camera. Since most of you cannot adjust the shutter speed and aperture on your cameras we are using different camera modes to get the desired images.

 

  1. Motion - take ten photos of something in motion.  Five photos using SPORTS Mode and five using NIGHT Mode. Sports mode should help you stop motion and Night mode should help blur motion.  These pictures need to be thought out with good composition to earn credit!

(Slower shutter speeds blur motion and faster shutter speeds stop motion)

 


  1. F/STOP or APERTURE - Take ten photos. Five photos using the PORTRAIT or MACRO Mode (your choice) and five using the LANDSCAPE Mode. Take photos of five different objects. Photograph it once with portrait mode and once with landscape mode so we can see if there is a difference in the how the background looks. The idea is that portrait mode will make the background behind your subject more blurry and landscape mode helps make more things in focus. These pictures need to be thought out with good composition to earn credit!
