f.stops here.

So I’ve come to realise my memory of f.stops has vastly deteriorated since my film days. Time to memorise them again until I know them inside out, back to front, front to back :)

How well do you know your f.stops?

    Some people dont realise this, but in a lot of late model digital SLR’s you can actually change the f-stop scale that the camera uses.

    For example, you can set it to only use the full stop scale (ie: 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, etc) or you can set it to use a half stop scale (ie: 2.8, 3.3, 4, 4.8, 5.6, 6.7, 8 ) or even a third stop scale (ie: 2.8, 3.2, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5.0, 5.6, 6.3, 7.1, 8 ).

    I know my f-stops, but my method is… “play with the dial thingameejig until it looks about right”

    Now, lets talk about T-Stops….
