Default Simple cheatsheet

Reading Darren's article about the exposure triangle has inspired me to share this simple cheat sheet I put together to remind me the absolute basics of exposure and the settings that affect it.

It is probably only useful to newbies, but have a look and let me know what you think - comments appreciated.

You can download it from my website, Jeremy Jacobs Photography.

Enjoy

Hi Jeremy

I have just downloaded your cheat sheet i think it's great for anyone like myself who can still get his settings mixed up. There is nothing wrong with a quick check to make sure you get it first time and every time
