13 C oncepts in Phot ograph y Holding the camera Hold the camera and place your index nger on the shutt er button. F or larger lenses, plac e your left hand under the lens for support. Shooting postures A correct posture f or stabilizing the camera is necessary for tak ing a good photo .
14 Concepts in Photog raphy Standing photograph y Compose your shot, stand up straight with y our feet shoulder-length apar t, and keep your elbow s pointed down. Crouching photogr aphy Compose your shot, cr ouch with one knee touching the ground, and keep a straight posture .
15 Concepts in Photog raphy Aper ture The aperture is one of the three factors that determine the exposure . The aper ture housing contains thin, metal plat es that open and close to let light through the aperture and into the camera.
16 Concepts in Photog raphy Aper ture value and the depth of eld Y ou can blur or sharpen the background of a photo b y controlling the aper ture . It is closely related to the depth of eld (DOF), which can be expressed as small or large . A photo with a large DOF A photo with a small DOF The aperture housing contains several blades.
17 Concepts in Photog raphy Shutter speed Shutter speed ref ers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter . I t controls the amount of light which passes through the aperture before it r eaches the image sensor . Usually , the shutt er speed is manually adjustable.
18 Concepts in Photog raphy ISO sensitivity The exposure of an image is determined b y the sensitivity of the camera. This sensitivity is based on international lm standards , known as ISO standards. On dig ital cameras, this sensitivity rating is used to r epresent the sensitivity of the digital mechanism that captures the image.
19 Concepts in Photog raphy How the aper ture setting , shutter speed , and ISO sensitivity control exposur e The aperture setting, shutter speed , and ISO sensitivity are closely interconnected in photog raphy .
20 Concepts in Photog raphy Corr elation between f ocal length, angle, and perspective F ocal length, which is measured in millimeters , is the distance between the middle of the lens to its focal point. It aects the angle and perspective of captured images.
21 Concepts in Photog raphy What c ontrols out-of-focus eects? DOF depends on aper ture value The wider the aperture is (namely the lower the aperture value), the lower the DOF becomes. Under the c ondition where the focal length is equal , a low aperture value leads to a photo with a low DOF .
22 Concepts in Photog raphy DOF depends on the distance between the subject and the camera The shorter the distance between the subject and the camera is, the lower the DOF gets. Therefore , taking a photo close to a subject can result in a photo of low DOF .
23 Concepts in Photog raphy Composition It is fun to capture a photo of the beauty of world with a camera. No matter how the world is beautiful , howev er , a poor composition cannot capture the beauty of it. When it comes to composition, it is v er y important to prioritize subjects.
24 Concepts in Photog raphy Photos with two subjects If your subject is in one corner of the photo, it cr eates an unbalanced composition. Y ou can stabiliz e the photo by capturing a second subject in the opposite corner to balanc e the weight of the photo .
25 Concepts in Photog raphy F lash Light is one of the most important components in photography . It is not easy , how ever , to have an enough amount of light an ytime and anywhere. Making use of a ash allows you to optimize light settings and creat e a variety of eects.
