recting the exposure.

nated by white a reas and strong reflections, will

rn

the aperture by 1/2 or 1 full stop, o r by approaching
the main subject ta measure the light intensity, it
can be correct
lv
exPosed .
2. Spot-lighted Subjects, etc.
A persan standing before a b lack background o r a
spot-lighted subject in a stage play will be influenced
by the dark surroundings and tu rn out overexposed.

full stop below thal indicated by the meter.
