1. List the four major types of film camera designs and give a brief description of
their viewing system.
a. Single Reflex Cameras – shows the user directly through the lens so
that a person can preview what will be recorded on the film
b. Viewfinder Cameras – lets the user see-through a peephole, that shows
almost, but not quite the whole image.
c. Rangefinder Cameras – are basically viewfinder cameras with a visual
focusing system, that’s allows the user to use it like a viewfinder
camera but with the focusing system.
d. Twin-Lens Reflex Cameras – they contain two lenses, one for viewing
and the other just below that exposes the film.
2. List two differences between a fully manual SLR camera and an automatic
camera.
a. The automatic contains push-button controls, while the manual use
adjustable knobs and rings.
b. The automatic automatically sets shutter speed, focuses the lens and
aperture while you have to only set those requirements on a manual.
5. What are the two parts on all SLR cameras that you use to control the amount
of light that strikes the film?
a. The shutter speed and the aperture size
9. What is the relationship between the size of the aperture and the sharpness of
an image?
a. As aperture increases, depth of field increase and more of the scene
near to far appears sharp and vice versa.
11. What is a correctly exposed negative and what is required to obtain one?
a. To get a correctly exposed picture you have to get a combination of
shutter speed and aperture which is neither too light or too dark but the
correct amount of light.
13. When you increase or decrease an exposure by “stop” what are you doing?
a. Each full setting of the aperture lets half or double the amount of light
as the next full setting, creating a one-stop difference. When the
aperture or the shutter speed has changed then the term stop is used.
14. Besides the available light of a scene what else should determine what shutter
and aperture combination you select for a particular photograph.
a. The sharpness of the image can affect the shutter speed, as well as the
fast or slower shutter speed can cause freeze motion or blur,
respectively. While the aperture size determines the Depth of Field.
But in conclusion you would have to compromise on a moderate
amount of depth of field with a possibility of blur.
