Slides are more or less 5Stops
Negatives are 6 stops
Black and white are 7 stops
How about "electronic cameras" ? :) how many stops they have
How about monitors ? how many stops
How about the slide scanners....
How many stops our eyes can see ?
Do we need all that informations ? (yes we do)
Anyway
-can you give me a very simple rule to follow and get the corect explose
on any subject ?-
Did anyother intresting to get a simple answer to that question ?
because if all in Oly we know, then we can stop that topic with spot
mettering.
But if even one here did not knows, then it's a good time now to tell about
it.
