FOCUS

The focus was on the satellite LNB. This has rendered the backgroud blurred or out of focus. Focal length is 105mm and shutter speed 1/3000s. aperture:F5.6, ISO 560. The fast shutter speed and 560 ISO have underexposed the image.







For this picture, I locked the focus on the building in the background and took the picture. This has thrown the LNB out of focus and given a sharp background. Camera settings:ISO 560, 80mm, S/SPEED:1/250s,Aperture:4.9

This exercise is about focusing with a set aperture. I shot in manual and had the lowest possible aperture with my selected shutter speed. I locked the focus on my satellite LNB and took a picture. The LNB as can be seen appears sharp while my background is thrown out of focus.ISO 560, 80mm, S/SPEED:1/250s,Aperture:4.9





105mm

By adjusting the zoom to its furthest telephoto setting the bookshelf now appears larger than it does unaided. focal length is 105mm.

18mm

This is the view at 18mm wide angle. Taken at the same position where i took the first picture.The size of the shelf seen through the viewfinder now appears smaller than it does to my unaided eye.

50mm Standard

I use a nikon D7000 camera with 18-105mm lense. The first exercise was about understanding camera focal lengths.I pointed the camera at my book shelf and kept both eyes open- with one eye looking through the viewfinder and the other looking directly at the scene. I adjusted zoom until i got same image sizes through my view finder and directly looking at the scene. The focal length i read off was about 50mm
