Exposure tips for MEDIUM FORMAT cameras? - medium-format cameras
I bought a camera in medium format. I usually use Polaroid or digital only, and portraits in the sun, so I am not very familiar with the show. I do not want to lose, the film also tries to get the right light in different situations. Who knows how people dress, when? Since this is the best settings for night, sunset, Clock, Indoor Portraits, etc.? Examples of help and serious about this would be appreciated! Thank you!
