Mastering the Only Five Camera Settings Monday, June 30th, 2008
In my instruction I get asked a lot about how the five most fundamentally important settings of the camera work together to achieve the effects you desire. It can be hard to penetrate the curtain of photographic jargon, some of which can seem counterintuitive, so I decided to take a minute to explain all of this stuff at a very high level. If you have specific questions of your own, please leave a comment below and I promise that I will answer them.
The only five settings that you need to know are:
- Shooting mode
- Aperture (or f-stop)
- Shutter speed
- ISO sensitivity
- Exposure value (EV)
After the jump I will explain in detail. (more…)
