Time: Activity 3 Blog



Take four images of a running or jumping figure using fast shutter speeds (faster than 1/250 second). Vary the direction of travel in relation to the camera and attempt to fill the frame with the figure. Examine the image for any movement blur and discuss the focusing technique used.
These pictures are good examples of a fast shutter speed. As you can see, everything is in focus, and the subject is frozen in place . The focusing technique that I used was a large depth of field. This allows everything in the picture to be in focus so that the moving subject can be easily seen.










Take four images of the same moving subject using shutter speeds between 1/15 and 1/125 second. Pan the camera to follow the movement. The primary subject should again fill the frame. Discuss the visual effect of each image.
The technique of panning in a picture allows the moving subject to be in focus while the background is blurry and out of focus. The moving subject in the picture stands out, and gives you a sense of movement. As you can see in the pictures, the dog is clear while the background is blurry.
