Raw vs JPEG

Part1

What are three advantages of a RAW file:
  • Gives you more control over how the picture looks
  • higher in dynamic range
  • complete data from cameras sensor

What is one disadvantage of a RAW file: 
  • Cant be read by a lot of programs
  • Big files

What are three advantages of a JPEG file:
  • Can be read by almost any program
  • immediately ready for printing or sharing
  • not in need for correction most of the time
  • small files

What is one disadvantage of a JPEG file:
  • Don't have much control over how the picture looks

Part 2

1. Write your own one sentence definition of what a JPEG file is.
     A JPEG file is something that you need quick or fast.

2. Write your own one sentence definition of what a RAW file is.
    A RAW file is more professional and advanced that takes a while to process.

Aperture shutter speed and iso review

  • F4  – looks the best at  1/125sec of a second shutter speed. Background is very blurry
  • F5.6 – looks the best at 1/60sec of a second shutter speed. Background is really blurry
  • F8  – looks the best at 1/60sec of a second shutter speed. Background is a little blurry 
  • F11  – looks the best at 1/60sec of a second shutter speed.Background is barley visible
  • F16  – looks the best at 1/30sec of a second shutter speed. Background is visible but not clear
  • F22  – looks the best at 1/30sec of a second shutter speed Background is visible

Questions.

1.)At a slow shutter speed the picture becomes darker.
2.)The photographer should find some better lighting 
3.)If there is a tree in the background i want to tell that it is a tree but dont want to see the leaves
