Mastering the Only Five Camera Settings
Saturday, July 26th, 2008
Aaron Bieber has a nice post: Mastering the Only Five Camera Settings.
Shooting mode, Aperture (or f-stop), Shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, Exposure value (EV)
Each of these settings affects the others. It’s like a five-way see-saw where changing one setting will require that you change another to compensate for it. So why change the settings at all? Because each setting has a different aesthetic effect on your image.
This is some of the clearest writing on getting started with controlling exposure on a DSLR I’ve ever read. A great read for anyone, even experienced photographers as Aaron thinks and writes clearly and simply.
