WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: About Digital Cameras
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Cameras are an intricate piece of expensive equipment. If you can get to know your camera so well that you don't have to consciously think every time you want to change a setting, you will have more energy to focus on your subject and the creative aspects of picture making.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will take notes on the parts and functionality of our cameras and soon will be quizzed!
Pixel(Pic-El) = Picture + element
Pixels are the smallest picture elements to display images, you can think of them as bunch of small tiny little squares!

Last week, I mentioned this as an example.
From far away the image is pretty normal...close up we begin to see what makes the image so unique!
Today we can say that most cameras now include:
Camera BODY
(Light-tight box)
(A Glass) Lens
Digital Sensor
(the surface that captures light)
LIGHT TIGHT BOX/BODY

The body of the camera. It is an enclosure that is devoid of light.

Mirrorless cameras vs. DSLRs: What’s the difference?
As the name suggests, mirrorless cameras capture images without the use of a mirror in the camera body. This is different from DSLR cameras, which reflect images into viewfinders via mirrors. Instead, mirrorless cameras often use electronic viewfinders (EVF) to display images digitally.
Because they have no bulky mirror box in the body, mirrorless models are more compact cameras than their DSLR counterparts. And because the lens sits closer to the sensor without a mirror in the middle, image quality is potentially superior.
SHUTTER
SHUTTER
Mechanism which opens and closes for a given period of time
SHUTTER SPEED
SHUTTER SPEED
Amount of time shutter stays open
How do we understand Shutter Speeds?
All of the numbers are actually fractions of a second. So 250 is actually 1/250 of a second etc.
Remember when you move to the LEFT of the scale, you get MORE light.
When you move to the right of the scale, you get LESS light!
1/2 of anything is greater than 1/4000 of anything right???

APERTURE
Lens opening which controls exposure and depth of field
f22 (small Aperture opening) = Deep/Great DOF
vs f1.4 (large Aperture Opening = Shallow/Less DOF
REMEMBER!
REMEMBER!
The LARGER the opening of the lens (small F Stop number) the LESS/SHALLOW the Depth of Field.
Only the dog is sharp when using F 1.4 and the background appears blurred/out of focus.
The smallest opening (large F stop number) the GREATER the Depth of Field. The dog and the background are sharp when using F 22.

A stop is a measure of exposure relating to the doubling or halving of the amount of light. Image by Hamed Saber.
STOP!
Understanding what a stop is is key to understanding correct exposure. In photography, a stop refers to the doubling or halving of the amount of light that makes up an exposure. Each photo that we take requires a certain quantity of light to expose it correctly.
ADDING a stop of light by doubling the exposure will brighten an underexposed image.
DECREASING an exposure by one stop (halving the amount of light) will darken an overexposed image.
So how do you add or take away a stop of light? To do this, we need to change the aperture, shutter speed, and/or ISO. (we will get to that!)
Common shutter speed stops.
STOPS & SHUTTER SPEED!
Shutter speed measures how long your camera's shutter is left open during a shot. The longer it's open, the more light it lets in, and the greater your total exposure will be.
Doubling or halving your shutter speed produces an increase or decrease of 1 stop of exposure.
For example, changing from 1/100 of a second to 1/200 lets in half as much light, so we can say we've decreased the exposure by 1 stop. Similarly, going from 1/60 to 1/30 lets in twice as much light, giving a 1 stop increase in exposure.
