  1. Photojournalism MRS. CODY & MRS. WENDELE

  2. Camera Parts • 3 main parts of a camera • lens • film (or sensors) • body

  3. Camera Parts

  4. SLR Camera • SLR stands for single-lens reflex.

  5. Lenses • Two types of lenses • convex • concave • An SLR uses a convex lens

  6. Inverted Image • When light passes through the camera lens, the image is upside-down, or inverted.

  7. Focal Length • The farther away the lens from the object,the larger the image. • The closer the lens to the object, the smaller the image.

  8. The Focus • How clear or blurry an image is depends on the focus.

  9. Light • Light travels at 186,292 miles per second. • Primary source is sun ~ natural light. • A wave that travels in a straight line.

  10. Light When light waves encounter an object, they may be reflected or refracted.

  11. Light • Reflection: when light waves bounce off an object. • When light passes through an object, the speed of light changes and the waves are refracted.

  12. Refraction

  13. Light through glass When a glass allows enough light through it to see an object clearly,the glass is transparent. When light can barely pass through a glass,the glass is translucent. When light cannot pass through a glass,the glass is opaque.

  14. Light through lens • When light passes through a prism, it breaks down into the electromagnetic spectrum. • This breakdown of light into different wavelengths produces bandsof visible light.

  15. Light • White light is the combination of all the colors • Blackis the absence of colors or the absence of light

  16. Picture formation • Cameras can use the media of film, which requires a chemical process to form a picture. • Or the camera uses an electrical current to form a digital picture.

  17. Sensors • Digital pictures are formed by electrical semiconductors also known as sensors

  18. Film Negative • A negative is where lighter areas appear darker and darker areas appear lighter – which is then converted into a positive image in printing.

  19. Colors • The 3 colors which combine to produce all colors: • Red • Blue • Yellow

  20. Grains • The pictures produced on film are made of grains, which are circles of color

  21. Pixels • Digital pictures are made of pixels, which are made of squares. • The amount of colors in the squares is called saturation. • If a digital picture is blurry/out-of-focus, it is called pixilation.

  22. Iris • The hole that lets light into a camera is called an iris.

  23. Shutter • The curtain that goes up and down in a camera is called the shutter. • Controls the focus and the light/exposure.

  24. Aperture • The part that controls the size of the hole in the camera is the aperture. • It is like the iris of the eye.

  25. Focus • To lock the focus, press the shutter button half way down.

  26. Pentaprism • A camera uses a kind of prism called a pentaprism.

  27. Rule of Thirds • The main principal that controls where a subject is found in the frame is called the rule of thirds. • This principal states that you divide your picture into nine equal parts. • There are two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. • The intersection of these lines are called the vertices.

  28. Flash • You should be 6 to 10 feet - or 10 footsteps - away from an object for your flash to be effective. • Using a flash outside eliminates shadows in the pictures.
