Many photographers rely totally on their camera’s built-in light meter. After shooting many rolls of film they can’t understand why their pictures are not 100% exposed correctly! Your camera may say automatic, but that does not mean automatically right! Any good photographer must learn to "out think" the camera’s meter. To accomplish this an understanding of the "Sunny f 16" rule is essential.
So what is the rule? Well, simply put, the rule tells us on a bright sunny day to set your aperture at f 16 and convert the ASA or ISO film rating to the closest shutter speed.

| That old 'rule of thumb' has saved me a few times when batteries go dead or I am asked to use someone else's camera. |
