Equipments needed for Photography

• Camera
• Reflector
• Tripod for greater stability during long exposure

Aperture

• Adjustment of the lens opening
• Measured as f-number
• Controls the amount of light passing through the lens
• Has an effect on depth of field and diffraction

Focus

• Adjustment to place the sharpest focus where it is desired on the subject

Shutter Speed

• Adjustment of the speed of the shutter to control the amount of time during which the imaging medium is exposed to light for each exposure
• May be used to control the amount of light striking the image plane

ISO Speed

• Are employed on modern digital cameras as an indication of the system's gain from light to numerical output and to control the automatic exposure system.
• Higher the ISO number the greater the film sensitivity to light; the lower ISO number, the film is less sensitive to light
• Correct combination of ISO speed, aperture, and shutter speed leads to an image that is neither too dark nor too light

Metering

• Measurement of exposure
• Control the highlights and shadows

White Balance

• Control the color temperature

Composition

• Rules of Thirds - dividing the image by 2 vertical and 2 horizontal lines, the 4 intersection of these line will be the most interesting places for main subject(s)
