How to click bright Photos in low light or dark atmosphere?

DSLR is a box of mysteries. As a beginner, you never know all secrets of it. In my previous posts I have discussed about few basic terms in photography like shutter speed, focal length, crop factor, etc. Now you will get to know how, on combining these factors produces amazing images. If you have not read that post, or do not know about these terms, follow the given link: https://cameropedia.blogspot.com/2020/02/few-basic-terms-used-in-photography.html To capture a low light photo, You need to understand few things:      1) The Aperture controls the part of light that enters in your camera. In camera, Aperture is displayed by "f"value. So, Lower the value of the denominator, more light will enter in the camera.     2) The Shutter Speed checks till how long will the camera record the image. It's unit is Second(s). More the shutter speed value, more brighter image will be captured.(!!!!!NOTE: WHENEVER YOUR SHUTTER SPEED IS MORE THAN 1 SEC, IT IS PREFERABLE T...

Understanding the basics of EXPOSURE

A camera is basically a glorified box—one with a hole punched in one side of it,  containing some sort of light-sensitive medium, be it film or a digital sensor.  Letting light through the hole allows you to “take a picture”—leaving an image  on the light-sensitive medium inside.  Not just any light will do. A shortage of light results in underexposure and a  photo with details lost to darkness. An excess of light makes a desired image  appear washed out from overexposure. The right exposure will result in a  detailed image with a good balance of highlights, shadows, and midtones.  Exposure is ultimately determined by aperture (hole size), shutter speed (how  long the hole is open), and ISO (sensor sensitivity). In general, think of exposure  as a triangle: In order to maintain the same exposure, every bump or cutback in  one element will require a decrease or an increase in one or both of the others. Like many settings, you c...

Few basic terms used in photography

In the journey through the path of photography and cameras, you will come to face few terms that will turn out to be a big barrier if you do not know about them. So, here I am to introduce you to these few terms. 1. Focal length Have you ever wondered what the number mentioned in 'mm' on your lens actually means? Well that is the focal length range of your camera lens. But what exactly is focal length and how is it calculated? Focal length is the distance between the camera sensor and the point where light rays converge inside the lens, and this distance is measured in millimeters (mm). So when you are clicking photos at 50mm, the distance between the sensor and the point of convergence inside the lens is 50 millimeters. Similarly, if you move from 18mm to 55mm in your 18-55mm kit lens, the distance between the two changes to 55mm. 2. Depth of field Depth of field is the area that appears acceptably sharp, ahead and behind the point where you set the foc...
