APPERTURE

F2- Only the focal point is in focus and a couple of mm behind it and the rest of the photo and background is soft blur. F2.8- Still a very shallow depth of field but a little more field than the F2 F4 More depth of field but still considered a shallow depth of field F5.6 A middle of the road depth of field that you will still have blur in the background F8 Good when shooting more than one person who are on different planes F16 Almost all the image is in focus F22 The whole world is almost in focus from the point of focus to the infinity of the background

ISO
100 Bright sunny day tones of light Low grain/noise 200 You have a little more flexibility with 200 than 100 like gaining a stop of light low grain/noise 400 Good for lower light conditions, cloudy, shady Grain/noise 800 - Shooting hand held inside or as the light is fading around twilight 1600 Photo journalists often used this ISO as if they wanted to shoot inside or outside they had a lot of flexibility 3200 Shooting at night or in low light interiors hand held Really Grainy

SHUTTER SPEED
1/30 second - Great if you want camera shake or movement blur 1/60 second If you dont have steady hands anything from here down (1/30 etc) will have camera shake and motion blur when capturing movement 1/125 second My starting point if I dont want camera shake and when I want to capture slow movement without too much blur 1/250 second Good for freezing movement such as fast walking or slow biking 1/500 second Good for freezing movement of a car or scooter 1/1000 second Good for freezing movement of a Ferrari 1/2000 second Good for freezing movement of a Lamborghini!
