I'm looking for a camera for a photography class, and my teacher said I need to be able to adjust the f-stop and exposure manually. Can I do this?

Yes,it does. The Rebel 2000 calls this setting "Av" mode, which stands for manually setting the "aperture value." This setting controls the size of the lens opening that lets light in to fall on the film -- a larger aperture lets in more light, and vice versa. The older term for the same thing is "f-stop," since the size of the aperture is measured as a fraction (hence the "f") of the length of the lens. An f-stop (or Aperture Value) setting of 2 means the aperture is 1/2 the length of the lens (a relatively large aperture), and an 8 is 1/8th the length. Hope that helps.

No. I use mine on automatic because as an art major taking film photography as an elective, it's easier for me to use it in auto but you can switch it to manual if you want.

I don't believe so. You can set f stop and shutter speed manually for a still frame picture, but I believe once you put the camera on video, it is all automatic.

run ur camera in manual mode only..........the link between ur camera and ur actual lens is broken.......the macro extension tubes which maintain this link are 10 times costlier.............if u know how to use manual settings and know how to do macro photography basics.....it will work just fine........

You can control auto-focus. Portrait mode defocuses the background, which you can avoid by shooting in another mode.

Just tested, in manual mode, exposure locks into your desired setting. This function does not seem to be available in automatic mode, but is easily found in manual mode.

Depends on the camera. If you're useing ND filters and manually setting your stop then yes. But if the camera is auto setting the exposure then it's a really expensive useless peice of equipment.

Yes you can manually set the shutter speed. You set the dial to S, press the +/- button and then select the desired speed. You can manually set the aperture also.

Yes. The "M" setting on the dial allows you to set ISO, aperture, shutter, etc. manually.

By reading the answers it seems you are a novice without much experience with photography. Use the auto settings. You cannot do better unless you take some classes on photography. Which I recommend you do if you can. Most Community Colleges have Photography classes for pretty cheap.

I also took a good look at the controls, and see no evidence of aperture/f-stop controls. As has been mentioned by others, you can adjust ISO and EV. If your goal is to change the depth of field, that's not very useful. The only options I can think of are to try the Background Defocus mode, or use software after the fact to change your depth of field. I don't currently have Photoshop, but I'd imagine it does a fine job of defocus. I do sometimes use Pixlr Express on Android. It does a nice job with background blur, very adjustable. Good luck!

I don't know because I immediately returned this item for the EX-F1 instead. The manual adjustment of shutter speed was important for me, so that's why I got the other one - very specific purpose.

Yes you can, if your settings are in manual, and the right f stop, aperture , but the most important is the second. ( like 1/60sec. - 1/125 sec) don't get discourage, if doesn't work.....try again.Good Luck.

Hi Richard, If you pictures are too bright you can do one of several things: ---Step down the aperture on the lens. ---Increase how fast your shutter is. ---Decrease your exposure compensation. There is no automatic mode on this lens if you are using a Nikon or Canon camera.

Hope this helps... I have not used it, but the manual explains that if you switch to: Expert mode, you may use this to take photos and videos with manual adjustment of ISO sensitivity, exposure value, aperture, and the shutter speed. &#65532;One of the selections allows you to specifically use it to manually adjust the device settings, such as the aperture and shutter speed - set aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity.

You need to put the camera in full manual mode. Since this adapter has no AF function it will not register with the camera. Once you're in manual you should be fine. Aperture is fixed to what the telescope is so you adjust your exposure using different shutter speeds. Then to get the shutter to release you need to turn on the "release w/o lense" setting. After that you should be good to go.
