The Camera

1.The camera obscure effect…
     
    The camera obscure effect is when a tiny hole is created in one wall inside of a completely black room. Through the hole the light is focused, and the outside scene is projected (upside down) on the opposite wall. This was the first camera. It was created by Greek and Chinese philosophers.

2.The invention in the 1700s that brought man one step closer…

    Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens  perfected the understanding of optics and the process of making lenses and created the first camera lens that got us closer to making the modern day camera.

3. The first modern camera in pieces… 

     The parts of the first modern camera where the lenses made by Newton and Huygens and then finally in the 19th century Nicephore added film which created the first photograph.

4. Modern cameras V. S Nicephore's camera 

    The new cameras contain a computer which makes it very easy instead of Nicephore's process which took about 4 hours. So basically the big difference between the cameras before and now are the technology and the developed parts which makes modern day cameras a lot easier.

5. Modern days  tool to take pictures…

    Digital cameras use digital film to take pictures.

6. Auto V. S Program Mode

    In program you have automatic-assiast, just point and shoot unlike auto mode where you usually control the settings like flash.

7. Portrait Mode

     The portrait mode is used to attempt to blur out he background, camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting, (aperture).

8. Sports mode

    Sports mode is used to freeze motion, camera will use fastest shutter speed.

9. Half press

     You should do a half press on the trigger button because it gives the camera some time to adjust to the best settings for the picture.

10. Controlling Flash

      The symbol with the slash through the flash symbol  is used for when you do not want to use flash even if the camera wants to.

11. Controlling Flash 

     The symbol with the flash symbol and the words auto next to it when you can tell it to pick whether it thinks you need flash or not.

12. Introduction to exposure

     When you have to much light you will wash the photo out.

13. Introduction exposure
       
         When there is not enough light in the photo the picture will be too dark.

14. The universal stop
   
        A "stop" is a relative measurement of light.

15. The universal stop 

      The new planet will be one stop brighter if there are two sons instead of one.

16. The universal stop

      The new planet will be two stops brighter if there are four sons instead of two.

17. Shutters

     A long shutter has the effect of more light.

18. Shutters

     A short shutter has the effect of less light

19. Aperture

      The aperture controls light before it reaches the film

20.  Aperture

       When adjusting the aperture, you can increase the amount of light by setting the "Aperture Opening", also known as F-stop.
