Photo Editing: The Basics Created By: Bill Vincent and Jason Chwirut
We are going to show you: • Step #1: How to take a good picture • Step #2: How to enhance and edit digital images • Step #3: How to package those images
Step #1: How to take a good picture • Three settings we need to be familiar with: • Aperture • Shutter Speed • ISO
Aperture • The aperture is the size of the opening in the camera lens at the moment the photo is taken.
Shutter Speed • Shutter speed is the amount of time the shutter remains open when a photo is taken. 1/100 1/30 1/1000
ISO • “International Organization for Standardization” is a unit of measurement, measuring the sensitivity of film. The larger the number, the more sensitive the film. 100 ISO 3200 ISO
If your settings are incorrect…this is what can happen: Which cannot be edited!
Camera settings in the dental clinic/operatories? • Aperture: 4.0 - 5.6 f-stop • Shutter speed: 1/60 or higher • ISO: 600 ISO
