hey guys
reading bryan peterson's book. I just need someone to explain something further...when he says to "expose for the blue sky", point your lens to the blue sky, get a reading, recompose and shoot....
Does this mean I have to shoot in M mode? What If I'm using AV mode and I've chosen an aperture of f8, when I get the exposure reading while pointing to the blue sky, when I bring the camera back down to shoot my scene (which in this base is a building), the shutterspeed changes...so what was the purpose of the sky reading?
I'm missing something very obvious here, but it's getting me confused.
I hope you understand what I'm asking here.....
thanks,
j
