Baseball "Bracketing"

The following images are bracketed images with a fixed shutter speed at 1/100, an ISO 200, and fully manual. This was a great assignment. I don't typically stop down, or open up my aperture more than one stop when shooting. So this exercise shows how with each stop you are either loosing highlights or shadows. It also shows how the different apertures effect depth of field.

ISO 200  f16  1/100

ISO 200  f11  1/100

ISO 200  f8  1/100

ISO 200  f5.6  1/100 

ISO 200  f4  1/100

The following five bracketed images are shot at ISO 200, on AV Mode (Aperture Priority). By using AV Mode it enabled me to adjust my aperture to the appropriate f-stops that were required, and the camera adjusts the shutter to compensate to create a properly exposed photograph. This is also a great example of Depth-of-Field.

ISO 200  f16  1/20

ISO 200  f11  1/40

ISO 200  f8  1/80

ISO 200  f5.6  1/160

ISO 200  f4.0  1/320
