Advanced Digital Printing_Camera Test-Due September 14

There was a problem with the server @OCC so the assignment was delayed for a week.  I'll miss next week's class because I will be in Chicago - so I turned in my images.  I forgot to give him the written part of the test - so I will email it tomorrow...



Here is the Contact Sheet with all the images from the Camera Basics Test



Camera Basics 


Describe your camera.
Canon 5D Mark II/ Compact Flash media storage/21.1 Mega-Pixels
This camera  shoots Jpegs and RAW (CR2)
I think I can safely make a 16x20 image without manipulating the
file (interpolating)

Flash
This camera does not have built in flash.


Zoom Lens
Canon 24 -70mm F1:2.8
Shoot a subject first with the widest angle of the zoom, than shoot the same subject with the longest angle of zoom.


Focus, Shutter Button, and Action Shots
This camera can lock the focus when the shutter button is depressed but I changed the preference so this function is managed by the AF start button on the rear of the camera.
There is a beep when auto focus is achieved.  The image is briefly displayed on the LCD monitor when the picture is captured. There is no delay between pushing the button and capturing the image.
Shoot a person jumping in the air.  Frame the shot so your subjects feet can be seen IN THE AIR.  Anticipate the delay between the delay of the shutter and button - try to capture the person in mid air.  Shoot five images.


Exposure
This camera has a manual exposure setting.
Shoot a subject, without flash, by bracketing your exposures as follows:  1st, 2nd and 3rd frames at -2 stops, -1 stop, and 1/2 stop under-exposed - expose 4th frame accurately, 5th, 6th and 7th frames at +1/2 stop, +1 stop, and =2 stops over-exposed.


Lighting Color Temperature or White Balance
This camera has a manual color temperature/white balance setting.
Shoot a subject in the shade without a flash, using the following settings:
Daylight
Indoor/Tungsten
Fluorescent
Shade/Cloudy
