Shutter speed and Aperture

Aperture and exposure


The aperture can be found on the lens of the camera, the aperture controls the
depth of the image. For example if you wanted the object of your image to be in
focus but the background not, you would use the f stop of 2.8 or 5. The lower the
number the more the background will become out of focus. An example of this
can be found of the image in the start of my book of the rose. I personally
captured this image at the end of my street with my digital camera which I had
on manual, the settings on
the camera were the
aperture of 2.8 and shutter
speed of 1/60. Here are two
examples of other pictures
that I have taken, as you
can see in these pictures
(which are all my own) have the aperture of 1.4 or 2.5.
Images that have a smaller aperture can be found on the
right, this is not my own image but is an example of a
small aperture.
Shutter speed controls the time the picture is exposed for, for example if an
image is over exposed it can be seen as to light, if its underexposed the image
is dark. Getting the aperture and shutter speed right is key as they both control
how the image will look, thats if its on manual. An example, having a shutter
speed on 1/160th of a second, the image will be clear and not blurry as the
shutter is much quicker, whereas if you had it on under 1/15 of a second the
image will become more blurry as the number lowers.
The slower the shutter speed the more blurry the image
will be depending on what look youre going for, the
faster the shutter speed the more finer the image will
be.
