The easiest part about the camera settings was the exposure. Exposure is the light intensity hitting the camera censor, you were able to toggle the exposure with a conveyor, this conveyor opens and closes the light gate, when the gate is shut no light is able to be seen, therefore the brightness of the shot would of decreased. On the other hand if the gate was wide open it would allow more light to be censored, therefore the shot would be brighter. (Exposure is also known as iris or aperture. Shutter speed was also very easy to work on these cameras, shutter speed is a very unique setting, by going into the settings on the camera you are able to change the shutter speed, a slower shutter speed will cause the frame rate to drop, the frame rate dropping will cause a blur effect to occur whilst the camera is moving, for example if the camera was changed to 3 frames per second the camera would pick up 3 shots a second, this causes the video to slow down and be very blurry. You are also able to change the shutter speed so the video is fast and smooth, to do this again you have to change the shutter speed to fast in the settings, the highest frame rate the camera can earn is 2000 whilst being able to record in a 1920 x 1080  resolution. There is one major risk with increasing the frame rate to above the threshold of around 800 frames per second, this will cause the camera shot to decrease in brightness. This shutter speed allows the movement of the camera to be insanely smooth, unlike 3 frames per second 50+ would be very smooth with next to no movement blur.

There was nothing to difficult with the tasks themselves, the hardest part was trying to help the others who didn’t understand, after a lot of comparisons and re-runs we were all able to understand Aperture, Iris, exposure and shutter speed.

The teamwork wasn’t the best, some people didn’t understand the settings, but as we were trying to explain there were other people storming into shutter speed when only about two people understood what was going on.
