Photography 1

ASA and ISO refers to the _____ of your film

Speed

What happens when you accidentally poor fixer before the film developer?

The light struck silver particles (emulsion) will wash away before it could harden, film would be clear

What is depth of field?

The range of focus (space between closest thing and furthest thing in focus)

If you point your meter at a white wall and take the picture what will happen?

The wall will render as a middle grey

Negatives have too much density in both shadow and light when

There was too much light while shooting (overexposed), or they were over developed while processing

When film is developed what happens to the light-struck silver particles?

They harden/clump together

When film is fixed what happens to the unexposed silver particles?

They wash away

Name two or more differences between camera vision and human vision

Two eyes v one eye, our vision is dependent on constant movement while the camera depends on stillness, we see colour at the center of our vision while the camera has an even distribution of color

Name two or more similarities between camera vision and human vision

We view images upside and backwards, the iris is like aperture, the pupil is like the lens

What two elements are you always thinking about?

aperture and shutter speed

ISO 800 speed film is referred to as fast because.... a. it is easier to lead than other films b. it has larger silver crystals and is sensitive to light c. you get two stops more light than ISO 200 speed film d. it is the film preferred by athletes

both B and C

What exposure provides the least amount of depth of field a. F8 b. F11 c. F2.8 d. F5.6

c. F2.8

The aperture controls the ____ ____ ___ whereas the shutter speed controls the ____ when light strikes the film

depth of field, time

What exposure provides the most amount of depth of field

highest F-stop number (ex. F32)

Least amount of depth of field is a high F stop or low F stop

low F stop

You light meter averages everything it is pointed at to render the object a ______ value

middle grey

What should you do if you don't have enough light to handhold the camera at a 60th shutter speed

open the aperture more, or use a tripod

If you are unsure about your exposure should you underexpose or overexpose

over expose

Name three factors effected by ISO or ASA

sensitivity to light, contrast, grain

When the temperature of water gets warmer does it take longer or shorter to develop film

shorter

Bracketing

taking one photo overexposed, underexposed, and at the said correct lighting

How long does it take to develop film at the ideal temperature

ten minutes

In B and W printing what gives you the least contrast

0

What are equivalent exposures to 1/60 at F16

1/125 at F11 1/250 at F8 1/500 at F5.6 1/30 at F22 1/15 at F32

Using any given F stop there is a zone of sharpest focus, this zone extends _____ in front of and ______ behind the plane in which your focus is

1/3rd (in front of), 2/3rd (behind)

What are the largest and smallest lens opening/apertures on your camera?

2.8 (largest) 22 (smallest)

List the aperture options

2.8, 4. 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22

How much time does one degree represent when developing film?

30 seconds

In B and W printing what gives you the most contrast

5

Which shutter speed might you want to use to avoid camera movement (blur) while handholding you camera?

60

What is the ideal temperature to develop film

68 degrees

If you were unable to control the temperature of the water and forced to develop in 72 degrees, what would you do?

8 minutes, subtract two minutes

What shutter speed might you want to use to stop motion in a photograph

A very small shutter speed like 1/1000

What are the three factors that determine depth of field?

Aperture, distance to subject, focal length

F8 lets in twice as much light as _____ and half as much light as ______.

F11 (twice), F5.6 (half)

At F8 1/60 what is one stope more of light and one stop less

F5.6 1/60 (is one stop more), F11 1/60 (is one less)

Name three different shutter aperture combinations that provide the same amount of light as 1/60 at F8 (one above, 2 below)

F5.6 at 1/125 F11 at 1/30 F4 at 1/250

F4 lets in twice as much light as _____ and 4 times as much light as _______.

F5.6, F8

Using the same F-stop and lens you get better depth of field when you stand closer or further from the subject

Further

If your negatives are clear and have no detail what happened

No enough light when you were shooting (underexposed), or undeveloped while processing

Name three artists

Sarah Charlesworth Daniel Gordon Thomas Demand

Describe the work of your three artists

Sarah Charlesworth- she sets up very simple still life and then photographs it, very often her still life plays with one or two colours Daniel Gordon- he creates various collages from paper and objects and then photographs them, they are often very colourful Thomas Demand- he creates rooms/objects entirely out of cardboard and then photographs his recreated environments
