Evaluating Exposure

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXxVOR0AMUk

Understanding your exposure modes gives you a big advantage & can make or break a photograph.  Visualizing the image before exposure then looking at all parts of the image (background, foreground, subject) to make sure you only have good stuff in the frame brings your images to the next level.

Hi Greg,

Great video. Really enjoy your job here on the site and specially the learning videos.

Regarding your last example (black dog in shadow or white dog in the snow) what would you use than ? Matrix, center or spot ?

Thanks from Israel :-)
Nir

Probably center weighted if there was a more brightly lit area not in shadow in the frame. Otherwise stay on matrix.
