Exposure Settings
Multi-dim picker for aperture + shutter-speed + ISO (20 catalog options across 3 fields). Emits a camera-exposure prompt fragment.
Overview
The Exposure Settings parameter node specifies the photographic exposure triangle — aperture (depth of field), shutter speed (motion treatment), and ISO (sensor sensitivity / grain). Each dimension nudges the AI model toward a recognizable photographic signature. Wired to an AI image/video node’s cinematography handle.
Configuration (3 sub-fields)
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| aperture | string | wide-f1.4 (very shallow DoF), f2.8 (shallow), f5.6 (moderate), f8 (standard), narrow-f16 (deep DoF). |
| shutterSpeed | string | slow-1s (long-exposure trails), slow-1-15 (light motion blur), standard-1-60, fast-1-250 (action-frozen), fast-1-2000 (frozen). |
| isoValue | string | iso-100 (clean), iso-400 (slight grain), iso-1600 (noticeable grain), iso-6400 (heavy grain). |
| Pre Text | text | Free-form text prepended to the composed hint. |
| Post Text | text | Free-form text appended to the composed hint. |
Catalog (20 catalog options across 3 fields)
The picker UI groups choices by dimension. Each dimension is optional.
Inputs & Outputs
Inputs: in — optional upstream parameter input.
Outputs: out — composed prompt-hint clause, consumed by downstream AI nodes via their cinematography handle.
Composition
Example with aperture: "wide-f1.4", shutterSpeed: "fast-1-2000", isoValue: "iso-100":
“f/1.4 wide aperture, 1/2000 shutter, ISO 100”
Common Use Cases
- Shallow DoF portraiture (f/1.4 + ISO 100).
- Long-exposure light-trail compositions (1s + ISO 100).
- High-ISO low-light grain aesthetic (ISO 6400 + slow shutter).
- Action-frozen sports look (1/2000 + ISO 400).
