\nA good photographer has to understand how the camera works. DSLR cameras offer a multitude of settings that can be intimidating if you are a beginner photographer.<\/p>\n

I hear this a lot:<\/p>\n

Professional photographers always shoot in full manual mode. Trust me: that is simply not true…<\/p>\n

…but pro photographers can shoot in full manual mode because they understand how all the settings of the camera influence the resulting photo.<\/p>\n

You know this already:<\/p>\n

Photography is all about light. Capture the right amount of light and your exposures will be correct.<\/p>\n

But lighting conditions are not always ideal. That is why you have to learn how to set your DSLR camera to compensate for the lack or excess of light.<\/p>\n

Capture too much light and your photo will be overexposed. Too little light and you get an underexposed image.<\/p>\n

Know this:<\/p>\n

A technically correct photo is not automatically a beautiful photo. But, it’s almost always a requirement for any good photo.<\/p>\n

This post is strictly about the technical side of taking pictures using a DSLR<\/strong>. So, if you are ready for the 3 secrets that will improve the quality of the pictures you take…<\/p>\n

…let’s begin!<\/p>\n

1. ISO Explained<\/h2>\n

The simple explanation:<\/p>\n

The ISO setting determines the sensitivity to light of your camera’s sensor. With numbers ranging from 100 up, a higher ISO setting means the sensor is more sensitive to light.<\/p>\n

What does that mean?<\/p>\n

It means that a higher ISO setting will allow taking pictures in lower lighting conditions. Higher ISO will brighten the image.<\/p>\n

But, there’s a trade off:<\/p>\n

Because the camera will be more sensitive, higher ISO settings will also increase the granular noise in the picture.<\/p>\n

Practical ISO Examples<\/h3>\n

Let’s see some examples of photos taken with different ISO settings.<\/p>\n

I took two pictures in full manual mode. First one is at ISO 100. As you can see the exposure is incorrect and I got an underexposed shot (the image is too dark).<\/p>\n

\"iso<\/p>\n

By increasing the ISO setting to 800, leaving the other settings the same and keeping the same lighting conditions, I was able to get the correct exposure on the right.<\/p>\n

That looks better!<\/p>\n

So, by setting a higher ISO I managed to get the correct exposure. If you look at the detail on the bottom, there is some noticeable noise. However, sometimes you have to make a compromise and accept at least some noise in the picture if that allows you to get the right exposure.<\/p>\n

Let’s now see what happens if you abuse the ISO setting and you set it too high. For this I setup another example.<\/p>\n

I shot two other photos. One at ISO 100 and one at ISO 1600.<\/p>\n

This time I set the camera on a semi-automatic mode called P (Program Mode)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"iso<\/p>\n

In this mode the DSLR camera will try to calculate the right exposure. I only changed the ISO and let the camera decide on the other settings. At ISO 1600 we are starting to see a lot of noise.<\/p>\n

The ISO setting is probably the easiest setting on your DSLR camera to understand.<\/p>\n

Keep this in mind:<\/h3>\n

In practice you will probably want to start by setting ISO 100 regardless of the camera mode settings. This will give you minimal noise.<\/p>\n

If the photo is underexposed or blurry, then keep all the other settings the same, increase the ISO and take another shot. Do this again until you get the right exposure.<\/p>\n

SECRET #1<\/h3>\n

How to Remove ISO Noise Using Photoshop<\/h2>\n

For removing ISO noise you will need to take several shots of the subject.<\/p>\n

Then open these shots in Photoshop using\u00a0File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack…<\/strong>\u00a0checking the\u00a0Create Smart Object after Loading Layers\u00a0<\/strong>checkbox<\/p>\n

This will create a smart object with the shots stacked inside it. With this smart object selected go to\u00a0Layer > Smart Objects > Stack Mode > Mean<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Using this technique you will highly reduce or even remove most of the ISO noise grain.<\/p>\n

The more shots of the subject you stack, the better the result.<\/p>\n

[\/section]<\/p>\n

When the noise is still too obvious then you’ll probably need to use one of the other photography secrets in this post.<\/p>\n

Let’s see what’s next.<\/p>\n

2. Shutter Speed Explained<\/h2>\n

To take a picture, DSLR cameras quickly open and close a “small door” to let light reach the sensor. The “small door” is called shutter.<\/p>\n

Shutter speed determines how fast the shutter is opened and closed.<\/p>\n

More specifically:<\/p>\n

The shutter speed measures the amount of time that the camera sensor is exposed to light for taking a picture. The longer the time, the more light gets to the sensor and the image will be brighter.<\/p>\n

Also important:<\/p>\n

If your subject is moving you might get a blurry picture. Setting a faster shutter speed will allow you to get a sharper photo.<\/p>\n

[section cssclass=”orange accent”]<\/p>\n

SECRET #2<\/h3>\n

Avoid Camera Shake Using A Simple Rule<\/h2>\n

If you are not using a tripod you have to hold the camera very still when taking a shot. But even then, if the shutter speed is not fast enough you might get a blurry picture.<\/p>\n

How fast is fast enough for the shutter speed?<\/p>\n

I always use this rule:<\/strong> set the shutter speed to approximately 1\/x sec where x is equal to the focal length.<\/p>\n

For example: if I’m shooting at 50mm, a 1\/50 sec or faster will be enough for avoiding the camera shake. At 300mm you need to go even faster at 1\/300mm and so on.<\/p>\n

[\/section]<\/p>\n

Let’s see a few examples of using the shutter speed<\/h3>\n

I took two photos of a spinning coin:<\/p>\n

One with 1\/5 seconds shutter speed and one with 1\/100 seconds. Here’s the difference.<\/p>\n

\"shutter<\/p>\n

It’s all about the balance<\/strong><\/p>\n

You have to set a shutter speed fast enough to avoid blurry photos, but slow enough to get enough light to the sensor.<\/p>\n

Remember Secret #1 – ISO<\/strong><\/p>\n

The DSLR camera settings are meant to be used together.<\/p>\n

What if the shutter speed that gives you a good exposure is not fast enough to freeze the subject and it still looks blurry?<\/p>\n

The solution is:<\/p>\n

Increase the ISO. This will allow you to set faster shutter speeds and getting the same exposure levels. That is what I did in the example above to get the same level of exposure.<\/p>\n

To sum up:<\/p>\n

You can brighten an exposure using a slower shutter speed. And you can darken an exposure by setting a faster shutter speed. Also, you can eliminate blurry moving subjects with faster shutter speeds and increase the ISO to keep the correct exposure.<\/p>\n

All DSLR camera have a setting mode which allow you to set the shutter speed directly. For some cameras it’s marked as S (Shutter Priority)<\/strong> and on other cameras it’s marked as Tv (Time Value)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Now that we understand two key concepts of photography, we are moving from full auto to semi-automatic mode.<\/p>\n

Just one more step to mastering full manual mode.<\/p>\n

3. Aperture Explained<\/h2>\n

Aperture measures how wide the lens is opening when the shutter is opened. A wider opening lets more light in.<\/p>\n

Quick remark:<\/p>\n

The aperture setting is given as a so called “f-number”. Not to be confused with the “f-word” \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

All you need to know is:<\/p>\n

The value of the aperture is an inversely proportional number to the area of the lens opening. For example, an F\/2 setting means an opening larger than an F\/4.<\/p>\n

Confused? Don’t be!<\/p>\n

The math and optics formulas behind this is not important. What is important is to understand how the aperture setting influences your photos.<\/p>\n

Here’s the deal:<\/p>\n

A higher F-number (narrow aperture) means that the camera sensor receives less light. A lower F-number (wide aperture) lets more light reach the sensor.<\/p>\n

So, if your photo is underexposed, you can set a lower F-number to get more light in.<\/p>\n

But how low can the F-number be?<\/p>\n

That depends on the lens you use. The lowest F-number available for a lens is part of the name of the lens.<\/p>\n

For example: the AF-S Nikkor 35mm 1.8 lens<\/strong> I’ve used for the photos in this post has a minimum F-number equal to F\/1.8.<\/p>\n

So, setting the aperture to F\/1.8 will give me the maximum opening of this lens and therefore the maximum amount of light this lens can let into the camera.<\/p>\n

Again, there’s a catch:<\/p>\n

Using wider aperture there is a trade off that you must be aware of. The wider the aperture, the narrower the\u00a0depth of field<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Wait a moment, depth of what?<\/h3>\n

The depth of field or DOF is the effective focus range, or the area that will be in focus. When you take a photo and focus on a subject, imagine two planes parallel to the sensor: one in front and one behind the subject in focus. That is the depth of field.<\/p>\n

The two planes can be closer or further from each other meaning a narrower or wider depth of field.<\/p>\n

The best way to explain aperture and DOF is through an example.<\/p>\n

I took these three photos with three different aperture settings:<\/p>\n

\"aperture<\/p>\n

As you can see, the DOF is wider and wider as the F-number is higher. That is: more of the subject is in focus. Also, as the F-number goes up (the aperture is smaller), I need more light to compensate for the less light going to the sensor.<\/p>\n

To do this I had to use a slower shutter speed going from 1\/10 second to 1 and then 3 seconds.<\/p>\n

[section cssclass=”magenta accent”]<\/p>\n

SECRET #3<\/h3>\n

Aperture and Bokeh Go Together<\/h2>\n

Foreground and background are both important.<\/p>\n

Combine a sharp subject in the foreground with a soft background and you get a beautiful photo.<\/p>\n

The soft background is often called bokeh. Higher F-numbers will give you less of the bokeh effect.<\/p>\n

Also, different lenses give different looking bokeh effects. The main factor in this is the number of blades that the lens has. You can check for this in your lens’ specifications.<\/p>\n

The more blades the aperture has the rounder the highlights in the bokeh. The less blades, the highlights will tend to be more square shaped.<\/p>\n

[\/section]<\/p>\n

Congratulations<\/h2>\n

You can now switch your DSLR camera to full manual mode. You now understand how to joggle the three powerful settings of your camera to get the correct exposure.<\/p>\n

Mastering the manual mode allows you to control the exposure, but my advice is to only use full manual mode if all other semi-automatic modes fail to give you the result you want.<\/p>\n

I’ll let you in on a secret:<\/p>\n

For most of the images I shot for our free texture directory in textures4photoshop.com<\/a> I used the semi-automatic P (Program Mode) and A (Aperture Priority Mode).<\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

Because DSLR cameras today are very good in calculating the required settings for a correct exposure. I used the Aperture Priority mode for a lot of photos as I wanted to set the aperture at F\/3.5, which gives me the sharpest results for my lens according to the specs.<\/p>\n
