Assuming a constant frame rate, what adjustment to exposure settings is most suitable when transitioning from a predominantly bright scene to one that is significantly darker?
Assuming a constant frame rate, what adjustment to exposure settings is most suitable when transitioning from a predominantly bright scene to one that is significantly darker?
- Reduce the aperture size (higher f-number) for greater depth of field.
- Decrease the ISO to minimize noise in the darker environment.
- Open the aperture wider (lower f-number) to allow more light in. (correct)
- Increase the shutter speed to capture more ambient light.

While shooting outdoors on a sunny day, you notice that your images are overexposed. What is the most direct way to correct exposure while maintaining your desired aperture and ISO?
While shooting outdoors on a sunny day, you notice that your images are overexposed. What is the most direct way to correct exposure while maintaining your desired aperture and ISO?
- Decrease f-stop to let in less light.
- Increase ISO to make the sensor more sensitive.
- Increase shutter speed to decrease exposure time. (correct)
- Decrease white balance to cool the image.
