1. Explain the "Camera Obscura" effect. How is it achieved?
2. What invention during the 17th century helped man get a step closer to creating the modern camera?
The perfection of the understanding and the process of making higher quality glass lenses by Issac Newton and Christian Huygen had helped man get closer to the modern camera.
3. What were the first parts of the first modern camera invented by Niepce?
In 1827, Joseph Niepce had created the first modern camera which included a glass lens, a dark box, and some film.
4. What do modern day cameras have in common with Niepce's camera?
They work the same way by allowing light to pass through a lens into the camera and exposing the film to the light.
5. What do digital cameras use to capture an image?
Digital cameras now use digital film. Digital film captures the image with an electronic sensor called a CCD and then stores the image on reusable computer memory devices.
6. What is the difference between the auto-mode and the program mode?
In auto-mode, the camera will completely control the flash and exposure. In program mode, unlike the auto-mode, you can usually control the flash and exposure along with a few other camera settings.
7. What is the portrait mode used for? How does it work?
The portrait mode is used for shooting portrait shots. The camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting to attempt to blur out the background.
8. What is the sports mode used for? How does it work?
The sports mode is used for shots in high motion. The camera will use the higher shutter speed possible to freeze motion.
9. Why should you do the half press on the trigger button?
You should because the half press is helpful in may ways. It includes faster camera response time, more control over focus, and encourages better composition.
10. What does this symbol mean?

When should you use this?
This means the flash is disabled. It should be used whenever you don't want a flash or the mood of the photograph can sometimes be more dramatic when the natural light is used.
11. What does this symbol mean?
When should you use this?
This is the auto-flash mode. It should be used whenever you want the camera to use flash when it thinks that there is not enough light.
12. What happens to a photo if there is too much light?
Too much light will make the picture looked washed out.
13. What happens if there is not enough light?
When there is not enough light, then the picture will look too dark.
14. What is a "stop"?
A "stop" is the aspect of photography to represent a relative change in the brightness of the light.
15. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there are two suns instead of one?
It would be one stop brighter.
16. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there were four suns instead of two?
It would be one stop brighter.
17. What effect does a longer shutter speed have?
More light will pass through the shutter.
18. What effect does a shorter shutter speed have?
Less light will pass through the shutter.
19. What does the aperture control?
It controls how much light passes through the 'pupil'. You can control the aperture by setting a F-Stop.
20. When adjusting the aperture, how can you increase the amount of light?
You adjust the F-Stop. With smaller F-Stop number, you get larger openings. With larger openings, you will get more light.
