We reviewed white balance, and learned how to read a histogram, and practiced with our camera's using shutter priority. Here are a few photos provided by Heidi Espey, a student in the class, to help us understand shutter priority mode. The first shot is on a shutter speed of 1/200, remember the camera picks the aperture of 5.6 and the motion is "frozen". In the second shot we have a shutter of 1/8 of a second, and an aperture of F 14. Both shots were taken with an ISO of 1600. The major difference between these shots is in the second shot the shutter is open longer, letting in more light and capturing more movement. Note, hand holding at 1/8 of a second is not recommended...nice shot Heidi! (also, smaller aperture gives us greater depth of field in second shot...clearer background)
F 5.6 1/200 ISO 1600
F 14 1/8 sec ISO 1600
In these next two shots we have an ISO of 6400...(all these photos were taken with a Canon EOS Rebel T3)...and please note noise is not an issue, even at ISO 6400. Each shot captured at different shutter speeds to show movement.
F 5.6 1/250 ISO 6400
F 10 1/60 ISO 6400
Here are a few more links that I provided to the students in the class, that go to one of my favorite websites when looking for tutorials. Please check them out if you are interested in learning more on these topics.

Thanks to Heidi for providing these photos she took in class last week.
Hope you will return to my blog in a few days to view updates on my next class. Thank you!
