• F4  – looks the best at ___125__ of a second shutter speed.
• F5.6 – looks the best at ___60__ of a second shutter speed.
• F8  – looks the best at __60___ of a second shutter speed.
• F11  – looks the best at __60___ of a second shutter speed.
• F16  – looks the best at ___30__ of a second shutter speed.
• F22  – looks the best at __8___ of a second shutter speed.

• At F2.8 there is no background visible. It is very blurry and all you can really see is the couple
• At F4 very little of the background is visible? Its very blurry
• At F5.6 a small amount is visible? Its still very blurry though
• At F8 like half is visible? Not as blurry
• At F11 most of the background is visible? Its focused
• At F16 a lot is visible? Its kinda blurry though.
• At F22 all of it is visible? Barely blurry

1. Consider what is happening to the people themselves at slow Shutter Speeds.
It makes them harder to see
2. In a real shooting situation, what should the photographer do to lessen this problem?
Lower the shutter speed
3. What combination of aperture and shutter speed do you think produces the best portrait? Why?

The best combination F22 and 1/8 of a second looks best because there is little blur and good lighting.
