  1. Unit 2: Photography Digital Communications II

  2. DigitalSLR and Point and Shoot Cameras

  3. SLR Cameras • Detachable lens for different distances • Broader range of manual settings • Large ISO settings • Aperture • Manual zoom • Expensive • Bulky

  4. Point and Shoot Cameras • Easy to use • Automatic • Limited manual settings • Compact • Lightweight • Non-expensive

  5. Components of a Digital Camera • Storage media • Battery • Optical zoom • Digital zoom • Flash • Preview mode • Mode dial • LCD screens

  6. Storage Media • SD card • Memory stick • Compact flash card • Internal memory

  7. Memory Cards vs. Internal Memory • SD cards, memory sticks, and Compact Flash cards - removable storage devices. • Internal memory – built in storage Internal memory space is limited. To remove the images from the internal storage a cable is required. Memory cards can be filled, removed and replaced with another memory card. Card readers enable you to move the pictures from the memory card to the computer.

  8. Transferring Digital Images • USB cables – used to transfer images from a camera to a computer • Bluetooth – wireless transfer of images • Card readers – input device that reads memory cards

  9. Battery • SLR cameras require a battery that will need to be recharged after hours of use • A point and shoot camera requires lithium batteries, typically AA. Rechargeable batteries and a battery charger can be purchased.

  10. Battery, cont. SLR Camera Point and Shoot

  11. Optical Zoom • Zoom that physically increases the length of the lens, essentially creating a magnifying glass; produces a higher quality lens.

  12. Digital Zoom • Zoom takes a portion of the image and enlarges it electronically; the image quality is reduced since digital zoom enlarges the same set of pixels without adding detail

  13. Flash • A device used in photography producing a flash of artificial light

  14. Preview Mode • Used to review images taken

  15. Mode Dial • Used to change camera functions

  16. LCD Screens • Allows user to see what the image will look like

  17. Composite Techniques • Rule of thirds • Point of view • Frame movement

  18. Rule of Thirds • Arrangements of elements in a picture • Image is broken down into 9 equal parts • Points of interest should occur at 1/3 or 2/3 • Creates strong focal points

  19. Point of View • Position, direction, and height of a camera • Change the way your subject is perceived by changing the camera position • Make actor look taller • Change the mood of a photo

  20. Point of View, cont.

  21. Frame Movement • A frame is an image frozen in the process of movement and represents the object's position at a specific point in time.

  22. Framing • Where the foreground frames what is being photographed in the background

  23. Into the Frame • The subject typically should be moving toward or facing the center of the photo

  24. Basic Framing Shots • Long shot • Mid shot • Close-up • Extreme close-up

  25. Long Shot • A framing technique used to capture the environment and full body of subject

  26. Mid Shot • A framing technique that captures the subject from the waist up

  27. Close-up • Framing technique that captures the head and shoulders of the subject

  28. Extreme close-up • A framing technique that cuts off top of head and chin of subject

  29. Camera Resolution • The quality or sharpness of an image, usually measured in pixels per inch; the more pixels, the higher the resolution

  30. Megapixels • One million pixels; describes the size of the images captured by a camera

  31. File Management • Construct a file management system for photos • Organization • Folders • Event • Date • Name or date pictures
