12. The camera control identified in this image determines what?

Explanation

The camera control identified in this image determines the image file size and the amount of compression used. This control allows the user to adjust the quality and size of the image file by choosing the level of compression. Higher compression results in a smaller file size but may also reduce the image quality, while lower compression produces a larger file size but maintains better image quality.

13. When you look through the viewfinder, you see the display shown to the right.  Use this image to answer this question. Icon labeled #8 is which control?

Explanation

The icon labeled #8 represents the control for aperture size measured in F-Stops. Aperture size refers to the opening of the camera lens that allows light to pass through. It is measured in F-Stops, which determine the amount of light that enters the camera and affects the depth of field in the resulting image. By adjusting the aperture size, photographers can control the amount of light and the depth of field in their photographs.

Submit
14. The camera control identified in this image determines what?

Explanation

The camera control identified in the image determines the drive mode, which refers to what happens when the shutter button is pressed. This means that the control determines whether the camera will take a single shot, continuous shots, or use a self-timer. The drive mode setting allows the photographer to choose the appropriate mode based on the desired outcome of the shot.

Submit
15. When you look through the viewfinder, you see the display shown to the right.  Use this image to answer this question. Icon labeled #12 is which control?

Submit
16. When you look through the viewfinder, you see the display shown to the right.  Use this image to answer this question. The four-digit number labeled #7 is not a real number you would ever see on your camera; it is merely using the "8888" to represent a number that can have up to four (4) places.  This number measures what?

Explanation

The four-digit number labeled #7 is not a real number you would ever see on your camera; it is merely using the "8888" to represent a number that can have up to four (4) places. This suggests that the number is not a specific value, but rather a placeholder or variable. Therefore, it is logical to conclude that the number is representing the Shutter Speed, which is a variable that can be adjusted on a camera.
