This document provides an introduction to basic photography concepts including exposure, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, composition, and flash. It explains that exposure is controlled by aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings and discusses the effects of these variables. Aperture affects depth of field while shutter speed can freeze or blur motion. ISO impacts image quality and noise. The document also covers composition techniques like the rule of thirds and leading lines. Quick tips for portraits emphasize perspective, lighting, and background. The overall message is that practice and experimentation are key to improving photographic skills.
A Complete Guide to Manual DSLR PhotographyLearnPick
It’s a commonly known fact that most beginner photographers use the auto mode on their DSLR cameras to click snapshots in the best possible manner.
It’s a fair enough practice; there’s no denying this fact but, at the same time, you must also remember that the auto mode of a DSLR doesn’t use the camera to its full potential.
So if you are willing to step out of your comfort zone to the "manual” mode, this presentation can help.

Understanding Exposure Triangle in PhotographyAbhijit Ghosh
The exposure triangle is a common way of associating the three variables that determine the exposure of a photograph: Aperture, Shutter speed, and ISO. One must balance all three of these to achieve a desired result, an adjustment of one requiring adjustments of at least one of the others. They do not only affect exposure, but are also the largest determiners of the global appearance of an image; thus, their mastery is absolutely crucial both for technique and composition.
Objective:
1. To learn how to use the exposure triangle to set a correct exposure in your camera.
2. To learn about the link between ISO, shutter speed and aperture.
3. To learn what aperture is, and how to use it creatively.
4. To learn what shutter speed is, and how to produce blur or freeze motion photos.
5. To learn what ISO is, and how to prevent 'noisy' photos.
Target Audience: Photography Enthusiasts
Agenda:
• To understand Correct Photograhy Exposure.
• To understand the components of Exposure Triangle.
• To know how to balance all the three elements of Exposure Triangle to achieve a desired result.
• Understanding the purpose and value of exposure is a must for photographers, particularly beginners who are serious about developing their craft.
Expected Outcomes:
By the end of the ppt/pdf, the participants will be able to:
1) Better understanding of each of the three exposure settings, how they are measured, what they do, and how they interact.
2) Better equipped to manipulate the exposure of your images, as well as the artistic presentation of motion, depth of field, and digital noise.
3) Better control of the manual mode in camera.

Hadj Ounis's most notable work is his sculpture titled "Metamorphosis." This piece showcases Ounis's mastery of form and texture, as he seamlessly combines metal and wood to create a dynamic and visually striking composition. The juxtaposition of the two materials creates a sense of tension and harmony, inviting viewers to contemplate the relationship between nature and industry.
The cherry: beauty, softness, its heart-shaped plastic has inspired artists since Antiquity. Cherries and strawberries were considered the fruits of paradise and thus represented the souls of men.

2. So you want to win the competition? How do you do it? Go out and take pictures! The best way to learn photography is through trial and error! See what you think is best! But since you’re here why don’t we go through some basic rules of photography to get you going?
3. Issue of Lighting Photography is all about light But the camera sees light differently from us Need to understand this difference, and adjust light that enters camera (exposure)
4. Exposure Exposure the most important technical aspect of photography This is controlled by 3 variables- Aperture, Shutter speed and ISO (sensitivity) The scene modes on your camera just plays around with different combinations of these! You can do it yourself through Shutter Priority (S), Aperture Priority (P) and full manual (M)
5. What is correct exposure? There’s no such thing! Technically, correct exposure means all light values fall within the range that your camera sensor (or film) can capture. Which works fine, but it might not give you the look you’re trying to achieve.
7. Wow that’s so cool, how can I do that? Take your camera out of green auto mode, put it into P mode. This allows you to use exposure compensation You can underexpose your pictures by dialling in – compensation, and + for overexposure. How much to set? That’s up to you! Try starting with +/- 1EV. Also useful if you think your images just look under/overexposed.
8. Other uses for exposure com. ‘Black cat in coal cellar’ Sunny, snowy landscape Your camera will get fooled more often than you think!
9. Shutter Speed ‘the amount of time that the shutter is open’ This can typically range from 1/1000 of a second to 2 seconds More light reaches the sensor if the shutter is longer Usually keep this as high as possible to “freeze” the image
10. However You can use slower shutter speeds to create cool effects
11. Examples Long shutter speed – capturing motion Short shutter speed - Freezing the moment
12. Aperture ‘the size of the opening in the lens when a picture is taken’ Measured in ‘f-stops’ or f/number – for example f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6,f/8,f/22 etc. Moving from one f-stop to the next doubles or halves the size of the aperture
13. Some more things The aperture scale is the ‘wrong’ way around: Larger number means smaller size hole Landscape photography usually needs a small aperture (big number) so that the whole scene is in focus Less light gets in with large apertures (small numbers) so slower shutter speeds will be needed and vice versa
14. Effects of aperture The size of the aperture affects the how much of the picture will be in focus – Depth of Field f/32 f/5
15. ISO ‘The sensitivity of the image sensor’ Typical values: 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 Higher ISO means more sensitive – so can take pictures in lower light However high ISO also means more grain (degradation of image quality) So if you have lots of light or your shooting on a tripod always use a low ISO
16. Examples Low ISO always yields best image quality, use when maximum detail is required, such as portraiture, landscape, etc. Picture taken in the studio at ISO 200 Detailed crop
19. Composition Getting the technical things right with photography is trivial, but getting nice looking pictures isn’t! Some rules that you can follow when it comes to composition, but rules are there to be broken! So don’t follow it blindly.... Subject bang in the middle usually doesn’t look good though!
20. Rule of thirds Placing your subject off centre, by about 1/3 of the way usually looks good. Your eyes are naturally drawn to these positions.
