- Photography relates to the action of light on sensitive bodies in the production of pictures, the fixation of images.
- "Photography" is derived from the Greek words photos ("light") and graphein ("to draw") The word was first used by the scientist Sir John F.W. Herschel in 1839. It is a method of recording images by the action of light, or related radiation, on a sensitive material.

Shutter Speed The shutter blocks all light from exposing the film until you press the button.Then it quickly opens and closes, giving the film a brief flash of light. You can control the length of time the shutter remains open by setting the SHUTTER SPEED. Longer shutter speeds = more light shorter shutter speeds = less light 9. The Aperture Before light reaches film, it must pass through an opening called an "Aperture".The aperture is like a pupil.
