Camera

1. Joesph Nicephore Niepce is credited with taking the first permanent photograph.
2.  Louis Daguerre used heavily polished sheet of silver-plated copper to make the first commercial photographic material.
3  Ansel Adams is famous for taking landscape photographs.
4. The three fundamental settings you need to understand to be an excellent photographer are shutter speed, aperture, and ISO.

5. The three metering modes are matrix metering, center-weighted Metering, spot metering

6. You use center weight metering for close ups and large subjects in the middle of the frame.

7. A great use for spot metering is taking pictures of the moon.

8. The four camera modes are program, shutter priority,  aperture, and manual.

9. The shutter priority mode makes you manually see the shutter speed and the camera will auto martially set the aperture and vice versa for aperture mode.

10.  Autofocus is set automatically by the camera to focus on a chosen subject. Manual focus allows you to change the focus yourself if your camera is having trouble.

11. I believe manual focus is best for most circumstances because you can adjust the picture how you would like to look rather than the photos looking the same.

12. You should use a flash indoors when you are in ballrooms, churches, weddings, and cooperate receptions.

13. You should use a flash outdoors when a person is in a shadow, backlit, overpower the sun, and to avoid color cast.

14. A good time to use a time pod is when you need to maintain focus and to pan.

15. You shouldn't use auto focus when using shooting a video because it creates a lot of noise.

16 50% closeups: 25% medium: 25% wide

17. A histogram is a tool to precisely judge exposure on a digital photo.

18. A low-key histogram would have data mostly on the left and could look under-exposed.

19. A high-key histogram would have data mostly on the right and could look over-exposed.

20. A clipping is a tool that can take out a portion of a photo.
