The adjustable diaphragm that controls how much light enters your camera is called:

aperture

The size of the opening light travels through your lens to hit your film/sensors is controlled by?

aperture

The relationship between focal length and how close things appear to you is such that the longer the focal length the

closer things appear to be

A correct exposure is made with ISO 200, aperture 2.8 and a shutter of 1/60. If we change the ISO to 400 which exposure below would also be correct?

f/2.8 and 1/125

An f-stop that would allow you to have a small amount of light hit your film/sensor and a large depth of field would be:

f/22

________ is not a reciprocal exposure to f/8 @ 1/125 sec.

f/22 @ 1/30 sec

Depth of field extends 2/3 in front of whatever you are focused on and 1/3 behind it (true/false).

false

Never use a flash outside.

false

Panning is a technique used when the subject is moving directly toward or away from the camera.

false

The lower the number of a film's/sensor's ISO, the more sensitive it is to light.

false

When using a faster ISO, more light is required to make a good exposure.

false

When people talk about "diffused light" they are usually referring to:

light that creates even illumination with relatively light shadows

In a digital photograph, the _____ the light, the more the __________.

lower/noise

Eadweard Muybridge is remembered for?

motion photography

To give ____ stop(s) more exposure means to double the amount of light reaching the film or sensor either by doubling the exposure time or by doubling the size of the aperture.

one

With color slides and digital cameras, even slight ______can cause loss of significant detail from highlight areas that cannot be added later.

overexposure

How long the light hits your film/sensors is controlled by?

shutter

The part of the camera that controls the amount of time your film/sensor is exposed to light is the:

shutter

Which does not affect your depth of field?

shutter speed

Most digital SLRs have a normal lens that is a shorter focal length than that of 35mm SLR film cameras. This is because ___________.

the sensor is smaller than the 35 mm film

A smaller F-stop will increase depth of field (true/false).

true

Alfred Steiglitz used his gallery and photographs to promote photography as an art in America.

true

Depth of field will be greater with a 50mm lens than with a 180 mm lens (true/false).

true

If the camera is not on a tripod, it is best to use a shutter speed of 1/60 sec. or faster to prevent camera shake.

true

The amount of light hitting what you are photographing will determine the exposure.

true

The direction a subject is moving in a scene will affect how fast a shutter speed is needed to freeze the action.

true

The lens of a longer focal length produces less depth of field than a shorter lens used at the same F-stop (true/false).

true

Using a small f-stop such as 16 will produce great depth of field.

true

You can generally tell by looking at the histogram whether a digital photograph (or scanned image) is over or underexposed.

true

The relationship between focal length and the amount of space you can see through your lens is such that the shorter the focal length the:

wider angel of view (more you can see) through your lens

Which of the following does not control your exposure?

zoom

Which shutter speed would you select to stop the motion of a person running, parallel to your camera?

1/250

___________ lets in the same amount of light as f/11 at 1/60 sec but produces the greatest depth of field.

10. f/22 at 1/15 sec

Which is not a full stop?

4.5

A good ISO to use while shooting a sporting event will have an ________, because it is likely to require a shorter exposure time.

400 or higher

Which of the following would not represent a full stop away from f-11?

5.5

________________ does not let in the same amount of light as f/8 at 1/125 sec.

9. f/5.6 at 1/500 sec

The current term to describe a sensor or film's sensitivity to light is _____.

ISO
