CIS 114 Project 4
Camera Resolution

In this project we will be looking at the effect that camera resolution has on the images (pictures) you take.  The images you take in this project will be used later when we work with applications that allow us to change images.  For this project I would like you to do the following.


1. Determine where you change the resolution and quality of the pictures you are taking.


2. Set up an outdoor shot and do the following;

  1. Starting with the highest quality setting, take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.
  2. Change the quality setting to the next lowest and take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.
  3. If your camera has a third quality setting change to it and take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.


3. Set up an Indoor shot and do the following;

  1. Starting with the highest quality setting, take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.
  1. Change the quality setting to the next lowest and take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.
  2. If your camera has a third quality setting change to it and take a picture with each one of the resolution settings, take notes how each picture is taken.


Bring your camera to school and upload the images to the computer.  Using Picasa create a folder named Project 2 and transfer all of the uploaded files for this project to that folder.  


If you want you can upload and copy the images at home and copy the folder you created to your USB drive and bring it to class.  Once you are in class you can copy that folder to the MY Pictures folder of the class computer.


This project is worth 35 points
