What does aperture control in a camera?
Color tone
Amount of light entering the lens
Focus distance
Image sharpness
A lower f-stop number (like f/2.8) results in:
Less light and more depth of field
More light and a blurrier background
Less light and sharper background
A darker image
A high f-stop number (like f/16) is best for:
Portraits with blurred backgrounds
Action shots
Landscapes with everything in focus
Low light settings
What does shutter speed control?
Brightness and exposure
Depth of field
How long the camera’s sensor is exposed to light
Color balance

1/500
2 seconds
Which shutter speed would create motion blur for a waterfall photo?
1/1000
1/250
1/30
1/4000
What does ISO control?
Image sharpness
Image brightness and sensor sensitivity
Lens focus
Color saturation
What happens when ISO is set too high?
The photo gets blurry
The photo gets grainy or “noisy”
The photo gets darker
The photo becomes sharper
Which combination would work best in low light?
Fast shutter, low ISO, small aperture
Slow shutter, high ISO, wide aperture
Slow shutter, low ISO, small aperture
Fast shutter, high ISO, small aperture
What is the term for balancing aperture, shutter speed, and ISO together?
Color correction
Composition
Exposure triangle
Focus point
A larger aperture (f/1.8) lets in less light than a smaller aperture (f/16).
True
False
Increasing ISO makes the sensor more sensitive to light.
True
False
A slow shutter speed is ideal for freezing motion.
True
False
Aperture affects both brightness and depth of field.
True
False
Proper exposure means the image is neither too dark nor too bright.
True
False
Define depth of field in photography.
Give one example of when you might want to use a high ISO.
Why is it important to understand the exposure triangle?
