Een tijdje terug werd hier in fotografie een link gegeven naar een fotografie cursus. Een aantal mensen is daar toen enthousiast aan begonnen, maar zoiets samen doen is natuurlijk veel leuker. Vandaar dit topic.

De bedoeling is steeds een les te lezen, en de bijbehorende opdracht uit te voeren. Het resultaat van die opdracht post je dan hier om aan de medeliefhebbers en andere belangstellenden te tonen. Het zou leuk zijn als mensen dan hun commentaar op de foto geven, zodat iedereen er wat van kan leren.

Je kan de opdracht natuurlijk meerdere keren uitvoeren en hier laten zien, dat komt het resultaat waarschijnlijk alleen maar ten goede.

Assignment 1: Take a landscape photograph using each available aperture on your camera, while using a 1/60 second shutter speed for each shot, similar to what I've done in the example in this lesson. If you don't have a tripod, you can set your camera on a fence post or any other handy thing to keep it in the same place for each shot.

Assignment 2: Do the same thing again, and this time find the shutter speed where your camera's mid-range aperture gives you the best exposure, with nothing being too light or too dark. For example, if you have 9 f-stops available on your camera, your first shot should be nearly white, the last one should be nearly black, and the fifth (middle) one should be nearly properly exposed. If your first assignment came out that way with the 1/60 shutter speed I suggested, try the same thing with a different shutter speed. The idea of this assignment is that the more you do this and fiddle back and forth with these tools, you'll get much more familiar with them.

You don't need to submit these images to me - they're more to give you a feel of how much light the various aperture settings on your camera let in and how shutter speed works with it.

One quick note on these two assignments - if you're shooting digital, you'll do just fine. If you have a film camera, make sure and use slide (transparency) film. Print (negative) film is an entirely different animal - we'll cover film extensively in lesson four, but you should know that when negative film is printed, there is a ton of latitude in how you can expose it. I once took some night shots of the sky and left the shutter open for hours to get a photo of the stars moving through the sky, and the came back looking like they were taken in the middle of the day. The printers tend to compensate for any mistakes you make, and in my case, their automatic printing machine just "thought" I had underexposed my photograph, so it compensated for it. If you try these assignments with print film, most likely you'll wind up with a series of photographs that all come back to you looking the same.

Assignment 3: Go out and take some pictures using shutter speed - either fast or slow - to create an effect. Be creative and have fun!
