Photography basics
- APERTURE.- It can be defined as the opening in a lens through which light passes to enter the camera.
- ISO.- a camera setting that will brighten or darken a photo. As you increase your ISO number, your photos will grow progressively brighter. However, it will show a lot of grain (noise) if the ISO is too high.
- SHUTTER SPEED.- It is responsible for two particular things: changing the brightness of your photo, and creating dramatic effects by either freezing action or blurring motion.
