Photography

With film cameras, one of the things you know is how to load film. To put in my camera, you use the dial on the top left and pull upwards which opens the door on the back of the camera. Once this back pops open, you place the film in the little holder on the left with the flat part towards the bottom of the camera. You push the dial down so it locks the film in place. You pull the film towards the right side of the camera and let the holes on the side of the camera catch on the reel on the side. Once it catches, you 'take' a few pictures to make sure the film is rolling up properly until it reads '1'.

Your shutter speed correlates with the aperture. The aperture lets in light and ranges in sizes. The bigger the aperture, the faster the shutter speed you should use. When the aperture is small, it doesn't let in as much light so you use a slower shutter speed. The 'B' shutter speed allows you to take the picture for as long as you want. Each speed is a fraction of a second so the setting 1000 is actually 1/1000 of a second.
