Vocabulary & Inside Of A Camera

• Macro Focusing-Applied To Zoom Lenses,Moves The Lens Group(s),Enabling The Lens To Focus Closer Then The Normal Focusing Distance From Close-Up Shooting.
• Burst Mode - Digital and traditional film cameras with a burst mode (or Continuous Frame Capture) allow you to take a series - or burst - of images just by holding the shutter button down. Used often for high-speed and action shots.
• Aberration-An optical defect in a lens causing it to form an image that is not sharp or that is distorted. This can take the shape of edge distortion or a lack of sharpness.
• Angle of View-The area of a scene that a lens can cover. The focal length of the lens determines the angle of view. A wide-angle (short-focal-length) lens includes more of a scene than a standard (normal-focal-length) lens or telephoto (long-focal-length) lens. Angle of view is basically the angle at which light rays can pass through the lens to produce an image on the film.

• Aperture-The aperture is the opening formed by the blades of the iris or diaphragm in the lens, through which light passes to expose the film. Aperture size is usually given in f-numbers, the larger the number, the smaller the opening. Aperture size together with shutter speed determine the amount of light falling on the film (exposure). The aperture is sometimes called the “stop".

• Shutter-a mechanical device for opening and closing the aperture of a camera lens to expose film or the like.

• Exposure-Light striking a sensitized material (film or paper emulsion). 

• Depth of Field-The range of acceptably sharp focus in front of and behind the distance the lens is focused on. 
• F-Stop-the setting of an adjustable lens aperture, as indicated by an f number.

• Focal Length-The distance from the optical center of a lens to the image plane when the lens is focused to infinity

Pinhole Pictures I LIked/Disliked

I Loved This Photo Because Its So Beautiful, I LIke The Bridge And The Lake In The Background And The Color Of The Flowers Seems To Stand Out a lot. Its Not Blurry Which Makes it Pretty Plus Its In Color.Everything In This Picture Seems To Be Sharp.Its Not Warped.

 I Dont Like This Picture Because Its Really weird. I cant Figure Out What It Is.There is No Action Or People. It Doesn't Seem Blurry Its Just Really Black I'm Guessing The Focus Is The Gray Thing In The Middle That I Dont Seem To Figure Out What It Is.It Doesnt Seem Warped.

Blurry I Think IS Still A Pretty Good Picture.

 I Didint LIke How I took This Picture Maybe It Would Of Been 

Good If I Didint Move It And Because Of That It Came OUt Really Blurry And 

It Makes Her Look Different.

I Like This Photo Because It Like The Perfect Close Up.I Also Like The Fact

 That She's Looking And Smiling.She Looks Kind Of Surprised.

                    I Disliked This Photo Because Its Just So Blurry And It Kind Of Makes Him Look Bad. Its A Late Shoot Since Hes Closing His Eyes.
