  2. Film speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_speed

    The ISO arithmetic speed has a useful property for photographers without the equipment for taking a metered light reading. Correct exposure will usually be achieved for a frontlighted scene in bright sun if the aperture of the lens is set to f/16 and the shutter speed is the reciprocal of the ISO film speed (e.g. 1/100 second for 100 ISO film).

  3. Photographic film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_film

    Film speed describes a film's threshold sensitivity to light. The international standard for rating film speed is the ISO scale, which combines both the ASA speed and the DIN speed in the format ASA/DIN. Using ISO convention film with an ASA speed of 400 would be labeled 400/27°. [29]

  4. Motion Picture Association film rating system - Wikipedia

    In 2013, the MPA ratings were visually redesigned, with the rating displayed on a left panel and the name of the rating shown above it. A larger panel on the right provides a more detailed description of the film's content and an explanation of the rating level is placed on a horizontal bar at the bottom of the rating.

    GN = distance × f-number. One needs to specify the film or sensor ISO speed, and it is conventional to quote for ISO 100/21°. The distance can be in feet or in metres, the units to be specified. [4] GND: Graduated neutral density. A type of neutral density filter in which brightness is reduced more on one side of the filter than on the other ...

  7. Guide number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_number

    Those that affect the camera's non-aperture-related light sensitivity; namely lens filters and the ISO rating of the film/imaging sensor. Changing either the f‑stop or the flash-to-subject distance does not affect guide numbers because, by definition, choosing a different value for one factor is automatically accompanied by a reciprocal ...

  8. Exposure (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure_(photography)

    For photographic film, sensitivity is referred to as film speed and is measured on a scale published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Faster film, that is, film with a higher ISO rating, requires less exposure to make a readable image. Digital cameras usually have variable ISO settings that provide additional ...

  9. DX encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DX_encoding

    The CAS code shows this is (top row) ISO 125 film, (bottom row) 24 exposures, +3/−1 f-stop exposure tolerance. The DX barcode reads 017563, showing DX number 109-12, 24 exposures. DX ( D igital inde X ) encoding is a standard for marking 35 mm and APS photographic film and film cartridges, originally introduced by Kodak in 1983.
