CAMERA
BETTER• Manual
exposure• Image
Stabilization
BEST• dSLR• 17-50mm lens• External flash
![Page 14: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
EXPOSURE
Most important variables• Aperture• Shutter speed• ISO
![Page 15: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
APERTURE
• Often is the most important variable
• Significantly impacts depth of field
• Displayed in “f stops”
![Page 16: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
APERTURE
• f/2.8• More light• Faster
shutter• Less DOF
Small Large• f/16• Less light• Slower
shutter• More DOF
![Page 17: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SHUTTER SPEED
Choose a slow speed to emphasize movement, or a fast one to “freeze” the scene
![Page 18: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
ISO
• Determines the sensitivity (to light) of the sensor
• High ISO allows for a faster shutter, but can greatly reduce quality
![Page 19: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
DEPTH OF FIELD
DOF is the area of the image that is in focus. It is useful for emphasizing and/or isolating subjects.
![Page 20: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
DEPTH OF FIELD
Use a large aperture for less depth of field, more background blur
![Page 21: Don't Say Cheese! Take Great Photos for Your Website and Social Media Networks](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070319/55853801d8b42a86388b5459/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
DEPTH OF FIELD
Use a small aperture for more depth of field, less background blur
