If a person needs a camera just to make a beautiful picture, then he does not need to be able to understand the principles of creating creative photographs. But over time, there is a desire to understand what's what, and learn how to control the rules for creating beautiful photos, squeezing the maximum out of the camera. One of the main parameters of the camera is the aperture.
Instructions
Step 1
Start adjusting your camera by setting the sensitivity value. Thanks to her, photographic material is able to process images under the influence of light. The higher you set the sensitivity value, the less light intensity will be needed to obtain a high-quality image. This is very important when shooting indoors or at night.
Step 2
Find the ratio "aperture-shutter speed". Thus, you can set the value of the exposure value. It is a reflection of the relative ratio of lens aperture to shutter speed. The lower the exposure value, the more light will enter the matrix, and vice versa. For example, with an aperture of f1 and a shutter speed of 1 second, the exposure will be 0. This means that a lot of light will enter the matrix. There is a dedicated shutter speed and aperture chart to help you set up your camera correctly. If you look closely at this table, you will immediately see that it resembles a multiplication table. And it works on a similar principle
Step 3
Focus on the subject and press the shutter button. Take test shots as you adjust the aperture to see the actual process. If you want to get a sharper center subject in the picture, you need to decrease the aperture value.
Step 4
It is necessary to understand for yourself that the same exposure can be obtained from different values of shutter speed and aperture: the longer the shutter speed, the smaller the aperture opening will be. According to the table, select the exposure value (shutter speed and aperture value) depending on the lighting conditions and how you want to shoot - at a fast shutter speed and open aperture for a blurred background, or, conversely, with opposite values for a sharper shot.
