As established before, shutter speed, aperture, and ISO are all crucial elements to creating the perfect photo. As shown below, I have different examples on how each of them are used. I went around school looking for different settings where each element would be used.

SHUTTER SPEED

Shutter speed is how fast a photo is taken with the camera. Typically, the faster the speed, the darker the image because it requires more light. As shown below, we start off with a fast shutter speed of 1/1000 to shorter speeds which show the motion of the leaves.

APERTURE

Aperture is how open the camera’s lens is. It works 2 different ways. One, the amount of light being fed into the sensor of the camera, and two, the amount of focus that is shown to the lens. The more open it is will be the more exposed the camera is and the more light is being thrown into it, and vice versa.

ISO

ISO (International Standard Organization) is the brightness and the amount of grain found in a picture. A low ISO is typically found in settings with normal lighting, whereas a picture with a very high ISO is found in a place with poor light source.
