Basic photography--see also the exposure guide packed with your box of film. Use the reciprocal of your ISA film speed to set your shutter speed, i.e. ISO125 = shutter speed 1/125, then: on a sunny day set aperture to f/16 (hard shadows) use f/11 if the shadows are slightly softer use f/8 if you can just see your shadow use f/5.6 is the sun is out (say between 10 and 2) but you have no shadow also use f/5.6 when you are in open shade. ---------- ----- Original Message ----- From: <balobo@juno.com> To: "List for Photo/Imaging Educators - Professionals - Students" <photoforum@listserver.isc.rit.edu> Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 12:00 PM Subject: Re: Eclipse photos?"Sunny 16" > What is the "Sunny 16" rule?
