It took me a while to figure out as well. Exposure is simply how much light hits the sensor/film. More light gives a brighter picture. There are three factors in exposure:
Shutter speed - if the sensor is exposed for a shorter duration, it is less exposed - simple
Aperture - the size of the hole that lets light in...bigger hole...more light...more exposure. The difficult part is that the number is an inverse...so, f/4 is bigger than f/8 and f/4 lets in more light/gives more exposure. Aperture also affects depth of field, but that's another topic.
ISO - this is how sensitive the sensor/film is to light...higher ISO=higher sensitivity=more exposed.

BTW, I still can't look at a scene and know what combination to use.
 

Tonio

Asperger's Poster Child
Here's a quote from the article...

Man finds out he's an idiot...

Tonio ran screaming from his house upon learning that DoWhat was right about him all the time. The Forumite was last seen sitting on ashes while wearing sackcloth, along with a paper bag over his head. Upon learning of the news, Jazz Lady simply gave a big smile of justification. However, Vraiblonde shook her head ruefully, knowing that some people simply cannot be helped.

I use a Digital ......... even when I had a 35mm it was mostly automatic Minitola X570 but i knew i wanted 400 ISO or better - 1600 was the bomb, but way to grainy :whistle:
