Explanation

Proper focusing is indeed required for sharp pictures. This means that the camera lens needs to be adjusted to ensure that the subject of the photograph is in clear focus. If the focus is not set correctly, the resulting image may appear blurry or out of focus. Therefore, the statement "Proper focusing is required for sharp pictures" is true.

Rate this question:
33.

The distance between the nearest and farthest object in a scene that appears in acceptability sharp focus is the _____ _____ _____ .
- Focus ring control
- Zoom ring control
- Camera shake control
- Depth of field
Correct Answer

A. Depth of field

Explanation

The distance between the nearest and farthest object in a scene that appears in acceptable sharp focus is referred to as the depth of field. This term is commonly used in photography to describe the range of distances that are in focus in an image. By adjusting the aperture, focal length, and distance to the subject, photographers can control the depth of field and determine which parts of the scene will be in focus and which will be blurred.

Rate this question:
34.

The _____ the focal length is, the greater the depth of field will be.
- Shorter
- Longer
Correct Answer

A. Shorter

Explanation

The shorter the focal length is, the greater the depth of field will be. This is because a shorter focal length allows for a wider angle of view, which in turn increases the depth of field. In simpler terms, when the focal length is shorter, more of the scene is in focus from the foreground to the background.

Rate this question:
35.

Depth of field is increases as the lens aperture becomes _____ .
- Smaller
- Larger
Correct Answer

A. Smaller

Explanation

As the lens aperture becomes smaller, the depth of field increases. This means that a smaller aperture allows for a greater range of distance to be in focus in the resulting image. When the aperture is smaller, less light is allowed to enter the lens, resulting in a larger area of the image being in focus. This is particularly useful in landscape photography or when capturing subjects with intricate details, where a larger depth of field is desired to ensure sharpness throughout the image.

Rate this question:
36.

Depth of field _____ the farther away the subject is from the camera.
- Decreases
- Increases
Correct Answer

A. Increases

Explanation

As the subject gets farther away from the camera, the depth of field increases. This means that a larger range of the scene will be in focus, from the foreground to the background. This is because as the distance between the camera and the subject increases, the angle of view widens, resulting in a larger area being in focus. So, the correct answer is increases.

Rate this question:
37.
