Which of the following is NOT a factor that affects exposure in sports photography?

  1. Aperture

  2. Shutter Speed

  3. ISO

  4. Focal Length

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Focal length affects the field of view and magnification of the lens, but it does not directly affect exposure.

What is the primary purpose of adjusting the aperture in sports photography?

  1. To control the depth of field

  2. To control the amount of light entering the lens

  3. To control the shutter speed

  4. To control the ISO

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Aperture is primarily used to control the depth of field, which is the range of distances that appear sharp in the image.

What is the primary purpose of adjusting the shutter speed in sports photography?

  1. To control the depth of field

  2. To control the amount of light entering the lens

  3. To control the aperture

  4. To control the ISO

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Shutter speed is primarily used to control the amount of light entering the lens, which affects the brightness of the image.

What is the primary purpose of adjusting the ISO in sports photography?

  1. To control the depth of field

  2. To control the amount of light entering the lens

  3. To control the aperture

  4. To control the sensitivity of the sensor to light

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

ISO is primarily used to control the sensitivity of the sensor to light, which affects the overall brightness of the image.

Which of the following is NOT a common exposure setting for sports photography?

  1. Aperture: f/2.8

  2. Shutter Speed: 1/1000th of a second

  3. ISO: 100

  4. ISO: 6400

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

ISO 100 is typically too low for sports photography, as it can result in underexposed images.

Which of the following is a common exposure setting for sports photography in bright sunlight?

  1. Aperture: f/2.8

  2. Shutter Speed: 1/1000th of a second

  3. ISO: 100

  4. ISO: 400

Show answer
Correct Option:
Explanation:

This combination of settings will allow you to capture sharp, well-exposed images in bright sunlight.

Which of the following is a common exposure setting for sports photography in low light conditions?

  1. Aperture: f/2.8

  2. Shutter Speed: 1/1000th of a second

  3. ISO: 100

  4. ISO: 6400

Show answer
Correct Option:
Explanation:

This combination of settings will allow you to capture sharp, well-exposed images in low light conditions.

What is the relationship between aperture and depth of field?

  1. The larger the aperture, the greater the depth of field

  2. The smaller the aperture, the greater the depth of field

  3. Aperture has no effect on depth of field

  4. The relationship between aperture and depth of field depends on the focal length of the lens

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The smaller the aperture, the larger the f-number, and the greater the depth of field.

What is the relationship between shutter speed and motion blur?

  1. The faster the shutter speed, the more motion blur

  2. The slower the shutter speed, the more motion blur

  3. Shutter speed has no effect on motion blur

  4. The relationship between shutter speed and motion blur depends on the focal length of the lens

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The slower the shutter speed, the longer the sensor is exposed to light, and the more motion blur will be captured in the image.

What is the relationship between ISO and image noise?

  1. The higher the ISO, the less image noise

  2. The lower the ISO, the less image noise

  3. ISO has no effect on image noise

  4. The relationship between ISO and image noise depends on the camera sensor

Show answer
Correct Option:
Explanation:

The higher the ISO, the more sensitive the sensor is to light, but this also amplifies the noise in the image.

Which of the following is NOT a common technique for capturing sharp action shots in sports photography?

  1. Panning

  2. Freezing the action

  3. Using a tripod

  4. Using a monopod

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A tripod is not commonly used for capturing sharp action shots in sports photography, as it restricts the photographer's mobility and makes it difficult to track moving subjects.

What is the purpose of panning in sports photography?

  1. To create a sense of motion in the image

  2. To keep the subject sharp while blurring the background

  3. To reduce camera shake

  4. To increase the depth of field

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Panning is a technique used to create a sense of motion in the image by following a moving subject with the camera.

What is the purpose of freezing the action in sports photography?

  1. To create a sense of motion in the image

  2. To keep the subject sharp while blurring the background

  3. To reduce camera shake

  4. To increase the depth of field

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Freezing the action is a technique used to keep the subject sharp while blurring the background, which helps to convey a sense of speed and movement.

Which of the following is NOT a common type of lens used for sports photography?

  1. Telephoto lens

  2. Wide-angle lens

  3. Prime lens

  4. Zoom lens

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Wide-angle lenses are not commonly used for sports photography, as they are typically too wide to capture close-up shots of athletes.

What is the advantage of using a prime lens for sports photography?

  1. Prime lenses are typically faster than zoom lenses

  2. Prime lenses have a wider maximum aperture

  3. Prime lenses are more compact and lightweight than zoom lenses

  4. All of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Prime lenses offer a number of advantages for sports photography, including faster apertures, wider maximum apertures, and a more compact and lightweight design.
