“The film speed” doesn’t exist in digital… and what the hell is the “speed of the exposure”?!?!?
APERTURE – SHUTTER SPEED – ISO. Not that difficult.
The light meter is COMPLETELY USELESS with digital cameras since you have A SCREEN ON THE BACK OF IT and the histogram if you want to be sure.
Another “I’m old so I can teach” piece of **** from eHow.
FIRST LEARN, THEN TEACH.
You are actually wrong on both counts:
First, It’s clear in the video that he means shutter speed when he says “speed of the exposure”.
Second, the light meter built into your camera is quite limited in functionality, a separate light meter is very useful, especially for studio photography.
You should do *your* research before making negative comments.
Nice =D
Thank you! Very informative.
i like this man:D
trying to watch this without my specs… I think he’s the fat one on the left.
