The document discusses various photography techniques and terms including shallow and deep depth of field, fast and slow shutter speeds, film grain, and digital noise. Shallow depth of field focuses on a subject while blurring the background, while deep depth of field keeps more of the scene in focus. Fast shutter speeds freeze motion but provide less detail, while slow shutter speeds can capture motion but with blur. Film grain and digital noise refer to the texture and speckles that can degrade image quality in film and digital photos respectively.
2. SHALLOW DEPTH OF FIELD
Depth of field is the distance between the
nearest and farthest objects in a photo that
will seem acceptably sharp in an image.
3. DEEP DEPTH OF FIELD
You can use deep depth of field to make one
object stand out from a large group of similar
objects. Much like shallow DOF
4. FAST SHUTTER SPEED
In photography shutter speed is used to help
the exposure time. The faster you put the
shutter speed on the more pictures will come
out and much fewer details in the object
moving.
5. SLOW SHUTTER SPEED
Is much like fast shutter speed, but when you
set the shutter speed slower you tend to get a
somewhat moving picture. This is because as
you take the picture objects around you may
be moving.
6. FILM GRAIN
Film grain or granularity is the random optical
texture of processed film due to the presence
of the tiny particles of metallic silver, or dye
clouds, developed from silver halide.
7. DIGITAL NOISE
"Image noise" is the film grain for cameras.
For digital images, this noise appears as
random speckles on an otherwise smooth
surface and can significantly degrade image
quality.
