21th Febuary 2014Hadis parsa (0318171)Introduction to PhotographyExercise 2 (Aperture)Lecture: Aperture


For the third week of photography class ,Mr Vinod re-explained again about our eportfolio for to sort out our confusion. After that, He taught about Aperture. I got it clearly after I have done it by my own camera now I would like to share a bit of my knowledge that I gained from researches and this section.

   
  When we talk about aperture we are actually talking bout the whole behind our lens which gives us the ability to 
1-control the light entering our lens 
2-control the depth of field 



As the aperture numbers gets smaller the aperture opening larger and the image gets lighter
A small aperture increases depth of field so foreground and background are sharp and a large aperture decreases depth of field so the background is soft.


These are pictures I have taken with different apertures 
exercise 2a
                                                aperture:4.5
                                               shutter speed :1.320
                                                ISO:200
                                                           aperture:5.6
                                                           shutter speed:1.320
                                                           ISO:200
                                                                   aperture :8
                                                                    shutter speed :1.320
                                                                    ISO:200
                                                                     aperture :11
                                                                     shutter speed:1.320
                                                                     ISO:200
                                                                      aperture:16
                                                                       shutter speed:1.320
                                                                       ISO:200
                                                                     aperture :22
                                                                     shutter speed:1.320
                                                                     ISO:200
There are pictures I have taken with different apertures and different shutter speed 
exercise 2b
                                                                       aperture:4.5
                                                                       shutter speed :1.320
                                                                        ISO:200
                                                                     aperture :5.6
                                                                     shutter speed :1.200
                                                                     ISO:200
                                                                     aperture:8
                                                                      shutter speed:1.100
                                                                     ISO:200
                                                                         aperture:11
                                                                         shutter speed:1.50
                                                                        ISO:200

                                                                    aperture:16
                                                                    shutter speed:1.25
                                                                      ISO:200

                                                                       aperture:22
                                                                    shutter speed:1.13
                                                                      ISO:200 
Reflection : from this lecture i understand how aperture works I;ve been looking at these kind of pictures for long time but i didnt know how it works how do they do that I mean how can they make the background look soft so the main point will be the attention point of the viewer now I know about it i have found it so fun and necessary  to know 

Thank you

Milda Parsa (0318171)

Introduction to photography
Exercise : 2 aperture

I was late in the previous lecture but at the end we were told to bring a camera with a manual mode and a tripod.
I heard that Mr Vinod shared some of the links and video about aperture.
I did search about aperture and also watched the links that Mr Vinod uploaded for us and slightly understood what aperture is.
When we talk about aperture we are actually talking  bout a hole behind the lens of our camera which gives us an ability to control the light entering  through the lens .
It also control the depth of field in our camera and the clarity.
_As the aperture number gets smaller the aperture opening larger and the image gets lighter
_A small aperture increases depth of field so foreground and background are sharp and a large aperture decreases depth of field so the background is soft.

On the first class of Introduction to Photography, Mr Vinod briefed us about this elective subject with the marking criteria for our assignments that we will be going through this 18 weeks for our first semester. And yet, he shared his knowledge about the better ways for choosing a better quality camera to us. He taught of the CCD sizes and what are the effects of the power of lens to the quality of a picture. It can be very confusing to understand and is best explained by a diagram showing the various relative sizes of different types of sensors.

Other than that, Mr Vinod showed us some of his photographs that he took during his career as a Professional Photographer. The lecturer told us to join a Facebook group that was made for students who are taking Photography classes so that we could share information with one another to gain more knowledge on what we are learning.

Almost to the end of lecture, Mr Vinod gave us an assignment. Choose 5 photos that you like which were captured by yourself and 5 photos that you like which were taken by professional photographers. Next, prepare a slide show of all the 10 photos with its descriptions and explanations as to why and how I came to like the photos that I have chosen. All of us will have to do a presentation in our next class.
