Last week, DigiKnow looked at two slow shutter techniques: ghosting and double exposures. These techniques used slow shutters and tripods. With both techniques the camera was static whilst subjects moved. In this weeks post, we continue with another two techniques that use slow shutter speeds: panning (background or motion blur) Read more…
Last week, DigiKnow looked at zoom burst and painting with light. We continue this week with ghosting and double exposure. These techniques require a camera that allows you to set the shutter speed and manual focus (compact/bridge or SLR). Using long exposures (shutter speeds) requires the use of a tripod Read more…
Last week, DigiKnow looked at Shutter Speeds and ISO in photography and explained about fast/slow shutters along with when to use ISO. In this weeks post, we continue with shutters and look at two techniques that use slow shutter speed which are fun and can make otherwise bland subjects look Read more…
Over the last number of weeks, DigiKnow has looked at photography as a means of Making Images. This has covered a number of things including: Composition in automatic mode Program mode (includes exposure compensation & white balance) Depth of field Using apertures in photography Aperture/shutter relationships in semi-automatic modes This Read more…
In last weeks post, DigiKnow covered Using Apertures in Photography (with Depth of Field in Image Making the week before). This week, we look at the Aperture/Shutter relationship to increase our understanding of the subject. Apertures control Depth of Field (DOF) and impact shutter speeds used. Shutter speeds impact whether Read more…
