To get good pictures, the film in your camera needs to be exposed to the same quantity of

light for every picture.

On a normal sunny day, you will use a fairly fast shutter speed and a medium lens opening so

that the correct amount of light will reach the film and you will get a properly exposed picture.

1/250 sec, f/11

On a cloudy day, the light isn’t as bright and you need to either let light into the camera for a

long time,

1/30sec, f/11

or let in a lot of light for a shorter time.

1/500 sec, f/2.8

Or possibly both—a lot of light for a long time.

1/60 sec, f/8
