the camera changes aperture automatically
C
the relationship between the filter and the sky’s angle to the sun changes
D
the sensor changes size
Question 3
A viewpoint is worth scouting partly to determine?

foreground, background, access and the direction of light
C
the camera manufacturer’s warranty
D
the number of menu pages
Question 4
Scale can be communicated effectively by including?

a blurred foreground with no reference
B
the camera body in the image
C
a recognizable subject whose size provides context
D
only empty sky
Question 5
Keeping exposure consistent across panorama frames helps prevent?

the subject is moving rapidly
B
the camera is handheld
C
the lens has no stabilization system
D
the camera/lens system is designed to avoid unnecessary stabilization movement on a stable support
Question 7
A deliberate landscape exposure should balance?

memory-card speed
B
sensor dimensions
C
file naming
D
direction, quality and timing of light
Question 9
A tripod is especially useful when a landscape requires?

A
vegetation, water, color, weather and access
B
sensor size
C
lens mount diameter
D
RAW bit depth
Question 11
Panoramic frames should overlap because overlap gives stitching software?

battery capacity
B
file compression
