Aperture

Aperture - the pitfalls Beware that when we talk about apertures high numbers (16 or 22) indicate small openings and low numbers (2,8 or 4) mean large openings. The smaller the aperture, the larger depth of field.

Aperture Priority By Vincent Bockaert In "Aperture Priority" mode, the camera allows you to select the aperture over the available range and have the camera calculate the best shutter speed to expose the image correctly.

Aperture Priority Auto Exposure, (A mode) when the user sets the aperture and the auto camera sets the most appropriate shutter speed. Most used mode as it is the appropriate for accurate depth of field control.

Aperture and Shutter Priority modes are really semi-manual (or semi-automatic) modes. They give you some control over your settings but also ensure you have a well exposed image by the camera making some of the decisions on settings.

Aperture priority is a semi-automatic shooting mode used in cameras. It allows the photographer to choose an aperture setting and allow the camera to decide the shutter speed and sometimes ISO sensitivity for the correct exposure.

Using a long-focal-length lens Focusing on near objects APERTURE The aperture, or f/stop as it is commonly called, is used to regulate the diameter of the lens opening. That controls the luminance on the film plane.

Aperture and f-stop are two photographic terms for the same thing. Aperture, or f-stop, is the camera's setting that determines the width of the passageway for incoming light. Inside lenses, there are blades that form an opening.

Aperture for Creative Control On most SLR cameras, there are two ways to adjust aperture to your advantage. One method is to use the setting usually labeled "Av", which stands for aperture value.

Aperture, also known as f-stop, is the size of the lens opening expressed as fractions or decimals and limits the amount of light allowed into the lens. F/2, f/5.

Aperture is expressed as F-stop, e.g. F2.8 or f/2.8. The smaller the F-stop number (or f/value), the larger the lens opening (aperture).

Large Aperture Small Aperture Since the divergent rays now travel different distances, some move out of phase and begin to interfere with each other-- adding in some places and partially or completely canceling out in others.

Large apertures (small f-stop numbers) result in small depth of field. This can be very useful technique if you want to highlight only part of the image or blur out distracting objects in the background. The eye will gravitate to the area in focus.

aperture The diaphragm in the lens that controls the amount of light shining through it, and onto the film. apochromatic(APO) Special lenses that concentrate various wavelengths of light on the same point.

aperture A hole. The circular hole in the centre of a lens through which light passes to reach the film. The size of the hole can be varied using the aperture control which in turn alters a diaphragm within the body of the lens. Measured in f-stops.

Aperture The aperture is a circular opening inside of the lens. It's diameter is varied by a group of metal flower petal like parts.

Aperture - Refers to the camera's adjustable opening (also known as a diaphragm or iris) that allows light to reach the camera's sensor (or film). The size of the aperture is measured using an f-number also called the f-stop (F8, f/8, etc).

Aperture: A small, circular opening inside the lens that can change in diameter to control the amount of light reaching the camera's sensor as a picture is taken.

Aperture The opening in a camera lens through which light passes to expose the film, also called "f-stop" or "f-number." The size of aperture is either fixed or adjustable and may be adjusted manually or automatically depending on the camera.

Aperture priority exposure: An auto-exposure mode where you select the required lens aperture and the camera sets the necessary shutter speed, to give the correct exposure based on the auto meter reading.

Aperture The aperture is the opening formed by the blades of the iris or diaphragm in the lens, through which light passes to expose the film. Aperture size is usually given in f-numbers, the larger the number, the smaller the opening.

Aperture The aperture is the hole inside the lens that allows light through. Aperture is measured in "f" numbers - a ratio of the diameter of the hole and the focal length of the lens.

Aperture With waterfall imagery, the aperture is often one of the last things to be decided. The shutterspeed is, generally, resolved first in order to determine the amount of blurring of the water.

APERTURE- Find a volunteer, a flashlight, and a partially darkened room. Look closely into the eye of your volunteer. Examine the size of the person's pupil (the black, center portion of the eye).

Aperture Priority: A larger aperture (opening) allows more light for a brighter image. This is very useful when taking pictures at night or in a dark room. Reducing the aperture can control light in environments that may be too bright.

aperture An adjustable piece of equipment inside a camera that lies between the lens. and shutter. Light comes through the lens, gets funneled through the aperture that has been selected, and then recorded by the image sensor.

Aperture: Variable opening that controls the amount of light passing through it. Size measured in 'f' stops. Large apertures [wide] such as f2.8 let in lots of light and give shallow Depth of field.

Aperture Circular hole in the front of the camera lens, which controls the amount of light, allowed to pass on to the sensor or film. On all but very cheap cameras, the size of the aperture is variable.

Aperture Priority The ability to change the aperture setting in an automatic or autofocus camera. By changing the aperture, it either increases or decreases the amount of light let into expose the film.

Aperture: The opening in a lens through which light passes to expose the image sensor or the film with analogue camera. The size of the aperture hole is referred to f-stops.

Aperture, F-stop A camera's aperture works like the iris of your eye, expanding and contracting to adjust the amount of light which passes through. The smaller the aperture, the less light it admits.

Aperture Lens opening. The hole or opening formed by the metal leaf diaphragm inside the lens or the opening in a camera lens through which light passes to expose the film. The size of aperture is either fixed or adjustable.

Aperture-Priority Mode When precisely controlling depth of field (the area that's in focus in front of and behind a subject) is important to the photograph, use the Aperture-Priority mode.

Aperture Lens opening. The opening in a camera lens through which light passes to expose the film. The size of aperture is either fixed or adjustable.

Aperture The aperture is like a valve that controls how much light goes through the lens. Wider apertures (smaller f numbers) allow more light in (and allow for shorter exposures).

Aperture Priority (*) Aperture priority is the second mode in which you set the f-stop and the camera sets the shutter speed. Shutter Priority works in opposite. Here you set the shutter speed and the camera sets the f-stop.

Aperture Priority AE. When using this mode, the user selects the aperture giving control over the Depth of Field. A large aperture letting more light in gives a small depth of field, meaning not much will be in focus.

Aperture. The lens opening formed by the iris diaphragm inside the lens. The size of the hole can be made larger or smaller by the autofocus system or a manual control. Aspect ratio. The ratio between the width and height of an image or image sensor.

Aperture-See f/stop, below. Baryta substrate or base-The paper upon which emulsion is coated. Baryta is a fiber base paper that is more stable than plastic coated paper.

Aperture: An opening in a lens through which light enters. Aperture size is calibrated in f-numbers. The larger the f-number(ex.f11, f16) the smaller the opening size.

Aperture To set the aperture press and hold the +/- button and turn the selection dial on the top of the camera to select the desired aperture (figure 5).

Aperture The aperture acts like the iris of the eye, opening or closing to let in more or less light. As such, it has control over two aspects of the photographs appearance.

Aperture The aperture is a mechanical device built into the lens and is basically a hole, the size of which can be controlled. The larger the hole, the more light gets onto the film during the exposure.

Aperture If neither the subject nor the camera are moving, the shutter speed is not very important. Aperture, however, affects the depth of field and therefore which portions of the image will be in focus.

aperture: An opening; this term is used interchangeably with f-stop to denote a camera's diaphragm opening. artifact: ...

Aperture Aperture refers to the lens diaphragm on a camera that controls the amount of light that touches the film when the shutter opens. Settings for an aperture opening are measured ...

Aperture ring - ring located on the outside of the lens usually behind the focusing ring, which is linked mechanically to the diaphragm to control the size of the aperture. Aplanat - lens which has been corrected for spherical aberration.
