10.17.19: Your experiment with shutter speed

Good morning, photojournalists,

Today is senior portrait make-ups, so we're meeting in the LMC.

You'll need to do the following assignment.

You'll need to put this on your blog.

Download the photos you took yesterday. The ones that followed this list:

What you need to do is look at each photo. Open the photo in PhotoShop (you can hold down the command key and then choose "open with PhotoShop"

Once you get them all opened, you need to look at the camera information about the photo. Go under "File" and then down to "File Info..."

 Once you get that window, select "Camera Data," and you'll get a window like this:

This tells you all sorts of information, like what brand of camera you used, what model, what lens, when the photo was taken, etc.

It also tells you what your shutter speed was and what the aperture (the number that says "f/----" is the aperture).

Record the shutter speed and aperture, then look at your photos. What do you notice about the shutter speed and aperture? What changes about the aperture when you change your shutter speed? What do the photos look like?

Put EVERY photo (once for each of the shutter speeds) on your blog. Then under EACH photo, put the shutter speed and the aperture.

THEN under each photo, write a short paragraph about what the shutter speed did to the photo.

THEN AT THE END, write a long sentence OR short paragraph discussing what happened with the aperture when you made the shutter speed shorter.

AND your final part of the assignment is to have a great day!
