Understanding this simple photographic rule will enable you to know what settings to set your camera at when shooting outdoors on MANUAL setting during Daylight hours…Without a light meter. I want you to Google ‘The Sunny 16 Rule’. You’ll get the basic concept and then I want you to take your Digital SLR, set on ‘M’ (Manual) so you can adjust your ISO, Shutter Speed and aperture depending on the daylight that is available. When you start taking your test images the exposures should be very close to correct if you’ve applied the correct settings for the available light.
