Thanks for ruining it Joss – “I am coming home Snowflake” – Uncanny X-men 390

Watching ‘Breaking Bad’ has conditioned me to assume that all of my neighbors with old RV’s are cooking meth to pay for their chemotherapy. Then I remember I live in Canada and no one has to sell drugs to pay for health care.

The Sunny F/16 Rule – Now Go take some pictures!

Published by NiteMayr on July 11, 2010

The basic rule is, “On a sunny day set aperture to f/16 and shutter speed to the [reciprocal of the] ISO film speed [or ISO setting].”[1] For example:

  • On a sunny day and with ISO 100 film / setting in the camera, one sets the aperture to f/16 and the shutter speed to 1/100 or 1/125 second (on most cameras 1/125 second is the available setting nearest to 1/100 second).
  • On a sunny day with ISO 200 film / setting and aperture at f/16, set shutter speed to 1/200 or 1/250.
  • On a sunny day with ISO 400 film / setting and aperture at f/16, set shutter speed to 1/400 or 1/500.
