The 3 camera settings that comprise the Exposure Triangle are Aperture, Shutter speed and ISO


On the back monitor of our Canon DSLR cameras, the aperture setting is displayed with “F” followed by a number.  


Apertures (from smallest openings to largest openings) are typically numbers   f/32, f/22, f/16, f/11, f/8, f/5.6, f/4


The shutter speed settings are shown on the top of the back monitor (left or right?) on the back monitor. 


Expressed as fractions of a second, the shortest or highest shutter speed on our cameras are x seconds and the longest or slowest shutter speed is 1/xxxx seconds.

Examples of Shutter speeds (not in order) are1/1000 , 1”, ⅛”. 1/60/ 1/500, 1/4000, 1/125, ½, 1/30,1/2000,1/250, (arrange these in order when you put them in your blog post)


The third setting ISO controls the camera’s sensitivity to light


This setting goes from  100,120,160,200, ,240,260, on our

 cameras.

To center the meter on our cameras, we can either  change the  a , s_       or the i _

Shoot 4 pictures using : 

  1. A high shutter speed (water balloon or water splashing)

  2. Low shutter speed using Spinning with a toy 

  3. A selfie with you spinning on a chair or your partner holding your hand and spinning.

  4. A camera on tripod using a slow shutter speed of 2 seconds
