Smartphone cameras Disposable cameras Advanced digital or film SLR cameras Basic point-and-shoot A lens bends light and focuses it onto the sensor. Different lenses bend light at different angles, giving different fields of view. Prime lenses (fixed focal length) tend to be sharper and faster; zoom lenses offer flexibility and convenience. 2 / 10 Which lens is best for capturing broad scenes like landscapes? Telephoto lens Wide-angle 20mm–35mm lens Normal 50mm lens Fisheye lens Focal length determines the angle of view and how close subjects appear. Wide lenses (24mm and shorter) show a broad view and can exaggerate depth. Telephoto lenses (70mm and longer) compress the scene and bring distant subjects closer. Each focal length changes how perspective looks in your image. 3 / 10 What effect do wide-angle lenses have on depth of field? No effect Shallower depth Deeper depth of field Blurs the foreground A lens bends light and focuses it onto the sensor. Different lenses bend light at different angles, giving different fields of view. Prime lenses (fixed focal length) tend to be sharper and faster; zoom lenses offer flexibility and convenience. 4 / 10 Why are medium telephoto lenses (85mm–135mm) ideal for portraits? They distort faces They capture wide scenes They bend straight lines They isolate subjects and flatten for natural perspectives ISO controls the sensor's sensitivity to light. Raising ISO lets you shoot in dim light or with a faster shutter, but adds visible grain to the image. Lowering ISO reduces that grain and gives you cleaner files, but requires more light or a slower shutter to expose correctly. 5 / 10 What do fisheye lenses exaggerate? Color balance Straight lines Wide-angle effects, bending lines and distorting views Depth of field Focal length determines the angle of view and how close subjects appear. Wide lenses (24mm and shorter) show a broad view and can exaggerate depth. Telephoto lenses (70mm and longer) compress the scene and bring distant subjects closer. Each focal length changes how perspective looks in your image. 6 / 10 In black-and-white photography, what do color filters primarily do? Add color Reduce light evenly Block reflections Lighten or darken tones for contrast Color in photography is powerful because it carries mood and emotion. Warm colors advance and energize; cool colors recede and calm. Controlling and balancing color in your image is a key tool for directing how the viewer feels. 7 / 10 Which filter controls reflections on non-metal surfaces like water? UV filter Neutral density filter Polarizing filter Diffusion filter Filters attach to the lens and change how light enters the camera. Polarizing filters reduce reflection and boost color saturation; ND filters reduce light to allow slower shutter speeds; colored filters change color tone. Filters are easier than post-processing if you know what you want. 8 / 10 What does a gray gradual filter do? Adds haze Creates dreamy effects Blocks UV light Darkens one side of the image selectively Filters attach to the lens and change how light enters the camera. Polarizing filters reduce reflection and boost color saturation; ND filters reduce light to allow slower shutter speeds; colored filters change color tone. Filters are easier than post-processing if you know what you want. 9 / 10 What does higher ISO indicate? Deeper depth of field Less sensitivity to light More sensitivity for low-light photography Slower shutter speeds ISO controls the sensor's sensitivity to light. Raising ISO lets you shoot in dim light or with a faster shutter, but adds visible grain to the image. Lowering ISO reduces that grain and gives you cleaner files, but requires more light or a slower shutter to expose correctly. 10 / 10 What is a drawback of higher ISO? Shallower depth Reduced noise Brighter colors More noise or grain ISO controls the sensor's sensitivity to light. Raising ISO lets you shoot in dim light or with a faster shutter, but adds visible grain to the image. Lowering ISO reduces that grain and gives you cleaner files, but requires more light or a slower shutter to expose correctly. Your score isThe average score is 0% 0% Restart quiz
