RE: Photography How To: The Exposure Triangle: Part 1: Aperture

in #photography7 years ago

Hi @rotibakar I nearly always have my cameras set on aperture priority to manage what you have shown above. I shoot a lot of street so I tend to set up focus using hyperfocal distance (either marked on the lens or by using my telephone app.

Other things I have done are focus stacking, which is now coming into mobile phones, where multiple shots are blended to give front to back sharpness.

I also like to do bokeh panoramas, where I stitch together multiple overlapping shots at wide aperture to simulate a wide angle lens with narrow depth of field. Sometimes known as the Brenizer Method.

Hi @tomcarpenter, thanks for the upvote and commenting; it's great to hear from the masses not really that many; I'm not that popular I usually have my camera set on manual, but swap between pre-programmed to enable myself to react to certain situations faster.

Yes, I do some streetphotography when I'm in the city and I usually have my wideangle set at f14 ish~ with shutter speed at 1/800 or less, and leave my ISO variable depending on the lighting. I've not really gone far with photoediting to the extent of focus stacking; I've tried it a few times but I seem prefer to get my shot right the first time leaving me minimal clean-up work later.

This is my first time hearing of the benizer method, I'll have to look further into that; Thanks for the video link!
