@spinach hey, this is a good guide!
@spinach I especially appreciate the "Aperture" section, as this was something that took me quite some time to figure out back when I started
@Tom agh yeah there's a lot that sort of gets obscured in a feedback loop between marketers and product blogs, and the meaning of f-stops is definitely one of those things (right there with focal length, angle of view and digital gain)
@spinach I mean I still have to calculate a lot bc I'm using a m43 camera with lots of adapters, a speedbooster and legacy lenses
@Tom there's even more once you get artificial lights involved
@spinach oh yeah omg
