DRAW IT WITH LIGHT



 LIGHT PAINTING


Hey guys, this is Kong and today I will teach you how to do 'Light paintings'

But first of all I would like you guys to know basic adjustment of the camera. The only thing that camera capture is "LIGHT" and the amount of light determines the brightness of pictures are called "EXPOSURE"


 The adjustment of the exposure are made basically with the combination of "Aperture", "Shutter speed" and "ISO".

APERTURE
- The aperture regulates the 'amount of light' that reaches the image sensor.



 SHUTTER SPEED
-The shutter speed regulates the 'amount of time' that reaches the image sensor.

Moreover, the shutter speed also effects movement in the image.
 So, if you make the shutter speed faster, you can freeze object in motion. Conversely, if you make the shutter speed slower, you can make object in motion appear blur.


ISO sensitivity
- ISO represents sensitivity to light, the higher sensitivity the greater ability to capture in darkness.


 LIGHT PAINTING
- Painting with light is a fun technique that gives a great results. It's called light painting because this is what you actually doing while taking a shot.


 Items to prepare
1. A camera that capable of long exposures.
2. Tripod, since you will doing some long exposures and want to make sure you camera sits still.
3. Light sources
4. Dark location

HOW TO....
1. Set camera in tripod
2. Set exposure to relatively long value ( F8-22 ISO100 Shutter Bulb )
3. Once the shutter open, start paint.
