how to control the amount of light reaching the film?
light meter, usually built in to the camera
aperture and shutter controls on your camera
APERTURE
The aperture is a hole whose size can be varied to allow more or less light to pass through it.
The smaller the f-number is then the larger the aperture is and the more light it will pass.
SHUTTER SPEED
the length of time a camera shutter is open.
longer shutter speeds allow more exposure because more light strikes the film.
SHUTTER SPEED
Shutter values follow a standard sequence with each one being half that of the next, allowing half as much light to pass through.
1sec; 1/2sec; 1/4sec; 1/8th; 1/ 15th; 1/30th; 1/60th; 1/125th; 1/250th; 1/500th; 1/1000th; 1/2000th
When a camera shutter is open, any objects, persons, etc. in front of the lens are recorded on film. Anything that moves across the field of view while the shutter is open will be recorded as a blur.
