Camera History

                                                              Camera History

1. The "camera obscura" is a dark room where small hole is created so that the light from the outside goes through inside.


2. In the 17th century Isaac Newton & Christian Huygens perfected the understanding of optics and the quality of high glass lens.

3. Joseph Nicephore Niepce added film to create the first successful photograph by using a glass lens, a dark box & a film


4 Digital Camera & Niepce Camera has three thing in common and that is film, lens and a dark box.


5. To Capture A Photo On A Digital Camera is a built in computer.

6. The Difference Between Auto Mode & Program Mode is on auto mode, the camera will completely control flash and exposure while program mode, you would need to control the flash and other camera settings.


7. Portrait Mode is used for capturing the object and not the background; it works by blurring out the background and using the fastest available lens.


8. Sports Mode is used to capture a fast moving object & it would work by freezing motion & using the fastest shutter speed possible.


9. The Half Press will tell the camera that you are almost ready to take the photo and it will trigger focus lock and faster full press response


10. The Symbol means Auto Flash this will automatically fire if the camera thinks it needs more lighting 

11. The other Symbol means Disabled Flash; this is when there is no flash at all and at times the mode will be more dramatic in natural lighting


12.  If there is too much lighting in the picture, it will be washed out


13. Is there is not enough lighting in the picture it will look dark and it would be hard to see.


14. The term "stop" is the measurement of light


15. If there was two suns it would be one stop brighter


16. If there was four suns, it would be two stops brighter


17. The affect of the longer shutter speed equals more light


18. The affect of the shorter shutter speed equal less light

19. The aperture controls light before reaching the film, but acts like a pupil


20. To increase the amount of light on the aperture you have to use a larger opening
