Hey all,
This is something that I have been kind of bothering me for a while. The meters in cameras are referencing 18% grey right? So do spot meters for that matter I think. So is 18% a good place for skin tones to be? And what about skin color? Would I expose for 18% for somebody with dark skin? What if I have two people of completetly different skin tones?
I'm sure these questions have been asked before, I just had no luck with the search.
Thanks a lot for any guidance.
