The ISO speed you would choose to obtain that:_.ĩ. You need to gain faster ISO speed, at least three stops. You know this is too slow a shutter speed for sharp pictures ot a volleyball game. You know this means the widest the aperture can open is f/4. You have a variable focal length (zoom) lens marked 1:4. You wish to change your shutter speed to 500. You wish to change your shutter speed to 250. You wish to change your shutter speed to 60. Your shutter speed will be_?Ģ, Indicated f/stop: 5.6. To obtain a shutter speed of 1000, you must set your ISO number at_? Answer: 800, equivalent of one stop more light (more sensitive).ġ. To achieve this, you must change your ISO number. (Two stops less light, to compensate for two stops more light based on change in f/stop.)īut you also want a still faster shutter speed than 500. To compensate, your shutter speed will be_? Answer: 500. You want a more shallow depth of field, so change your f/stop to 5.6. Assuming you wish to maintain the same amount of light striking the film for proper exposure, calculate the comparable numbers for each alternative. Your light meter shows you a combination of f/stop and shutter speed as indicated. Many digital cameras can set half shutter speeds. So if you want to change f/stops, shutter speeds or ISO numbers while maintaining the same exposure, you need to also adjust the other variables. ISO numbers too are measured in comparably: 100 is half as sensitive to light as 200 400 is twice as sensitive as 200, etc. That is, changing your f/stop from, say, 4 to 5.6 (one stop) is the same as changing your shutter speed from 125 to 250. Keep in mind that f/stops, shutter speeds and film/digital sensor speeds are nearly always related by precisely half or double. However, if you add a teleconverter to double the focal length of the lens, the effective aperture of this optical combination drops to f/8 and many cameras (apart from some more advanced models) will be unable to focus the lens.Įven high-end cameras may only be able to use the central AF point in these circumstances.COMM 242, Advanced News Photography (Photojournalism) Thus if you mount a 70-200mm f/4 lens on a camera and set an aperture of f/11, it will focus the lens quite happily. However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t shoot at smaller apertures because modern cameras measure exposure and focus the lens when the aperture is wide open, only closing it down to the taking aperture shortly before the image is captured. With the exception of some more advanced models, most modern cameras require an aperture of f/5.6 or larger for the AF system to operate. The best results are usually seen when the iris or diaphragm that opens to create the aperture has many blades (9 being typical) that have a rounded edge to create a near spherical opening. Many novice photographers are confused by the fact that a small aperture has a large f-number or f/number, while a larger aperture has small f-number.
Similarly, if sensitivity is kept the same, the difference in exposure between a shutter speed of 1/125 sec and 1/60 is the same as adjusting from f/8 to f/5.6 again it’s one stop brighter. If shutter speed is kept the same, the difference in exposure between opening up the aperture from f/8 to f/5.6 is the same as pushing sensitivity up from ISO 100 to 200 the image will be one stop brighter in both cases. Understanding the doubling and halving effect of aperture is helpful when setting exposure and deciding which shutter speed and/or sensitivity setting to use. F/3.5 could be thought of as f/2.8 and 2/3, for example, and f/6.3 as f/5.6 and 1/3. Other settings such as f/3.5 and f/6.3 are fractions between these whole stops.

The full stop aperture settings that you are most like to encounter are: f/1.4, f/2, f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6, f/8, f/11, f/16, f/22 and f/32.
