Wide-Angle & Ambient Light

All modern automatic cameras use an internal "program" to determine correct exposure settings. The inputs to this program are:

  • camera lens aperture range
  • camera shutter speed range
  • light level
  • film speed or ISO
  • flash mode
  • operator's desire ( such as for a portrait. )
