So I am new to photography and I thought i knew what i needed to know in order to get decent prints based on what i had read that had already been posted on here. but i haven't had much luck.... at least not as much as I would like, so i have a few questions. Please answer as many as you can.
1.) Does the shutter speed and ISO have to match? Is there a specific relation they have to have to one another for success, or are they completely independent of the other?
2.) I have heard that heat can affect the film. Is this true? I live in Texas, so heat is an easy problem that could occur. Should i moniter the film more carefully to avoid the heat?
3.) The cameras I am having trouble with are both old Canons (AE-1 and FX). Are there any known problems with these cameras, suchas the shutters, as they get older that could affect the pictures if the cameras are not checked out?
4.) I know this sounds silly and amature-ish but, what exactly is the ISO?
5.) What other errors could occur for film to turn out blank?
I am beggining to get discouraged with the photography endeavor because I am continuously getting at least some blank pictures. Often times, some of the roll will develoup, but other pictures will be blanks, normally pictures at the beggining of the roll. All i have worked with thus far is Canons. My boyfriend and I have a 22 camera collection, but i just haven't tried anything else yet.
Any help at all with this problem would be much appreciated.
Thanks
