When a photo is too dark it is considered underexposed, and when a photo is too bright is considered overexposed. Learn why this is a problem and how to get the correct exposure.

8min, 29sec

The aperture setting controls how much of the photo is in focus, which is called the depth of field.

5min, 9sec

lesson 4: Understanding Your Shutter

12min, 27sec

lesson 5: ISO

The ISO setting controls how sensitive the sensor is to light. The higher the ISO setting the more sensitive the sensor is to light.

lesson 6: Manual Mode

In manual mode you are in control of setting the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO to get the correct exposure.

lesson 7: Using Exposure Compensation

Aperture priority mode is probably the most popular mode used on DSLRs because it allows you to stay in control of depth of field. You can still influence the exposure setting by using exposure compensation.

10min, 57sec

lesson 8: Metering Modes

The metering mode you choose will affect how the camera uses the information in the scene to determine the correct exposure.
