This light meter tells you where your exposure is based on your shutter speed and aperture settings. You want to change your settings until the triangle is on “zero” - meaning it is balanced - not OVER-exposed or UNDER-exposed.

This light meter is giving you “stops” - example: if the triangle is on “-1”, it is one “stop” UNDER-exposed. To fix this, you could change either your aperture or shutter speed by ONE stop in the direction of allowing in MORE light.

in this light meter....

On the quiz, you will be given several examples (one each of the types shown above) of light meters.

For each example, you will be told what settings you (as the photographer) have chosen.

You will be shown what the camera is telling you.

Then you will be asked what you should change in order to get a properly exposed photograph.

In this example, the camera is telling you that for ƒ22, which you have chosen, even at 1 second you can’t get enough light. You would need to open your aperture to let in more light (a smaller number, such as ƒ5.6) and check again to see what shutter speed the camera now recommends.
