10 Features of Your DSLR Camera You Should Know

Here are two features of your
DSLR camera that you should know. They will help improve you as a
photographer...
Shooting Modes #1 (Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, and Manual
modes)
Aperture Priority Mode... This
lets you control / adjust the aperture, while the camera takes charge of
determining the shutter speed, based upon the other settings (including the
aperture). Background elements in your scene become either crystal clear or
blurred by adjusting the aperture. As you focus on your main subject, more will
be the background elements blurred, the wider the aperture. Conversely, without
them being lost to the blurring that occurs with the wider apertures you can
include more things in your scene by using a narrower aperture. The versatile camera trigger is also a
factor. Brighten or darken the overall image is another thing that aperture
adjustment does: you're letting more light in through the lens with a wider
aperture, and onto the camera's sensor too. So, images will become bright. As
you narrow the aperture your images will become darker, as this time during the
period of the exposure you're letting less light reach the sensor.
Shutter Priority Mode: This lets you control / adjust the speed of
the shutter, while the camera takes charge of determining the aperture.
Adjusting the shutter speed will let you freeze motion, if you choose a faster
shutter speed; while, a slower shutter speed will increase the amount of motion
blur in your images (a good example would be including a subtle blurring of the
wings of a kestrel, as it hovers in the sky. You capture this activity with a
slower shutter speed). Adjusting the shutter speed also affects the brightness
of the image, in a similar way as adjusting the aperture. You can add the camera remote for time lapse.
If you select a faster shutter
speed, you're reducing the time that the shutter is held open, which lets less
light into the camera's sensor, resulting in a darkening of the overall image.
Conversely, as you slow down the shutter speed you will notice images become
brighter, as letting in more light onto the sensor, as a result you're causing
the camera to hold the shutter open for slightly longer.
