A better way of calculating your camera exposures, as everything in photography utilizes math. For instance, take your light meeter. It's based off of foot candles. 1 candle = 1 second; 30 candles of light which is in open shade all over the world would = 1/30 of a second. Now lets jump to the brightest white, mid day cloud light by the sun has 500 candles of light on it, which = 1/500 of a second shutter speed. Now what ever you set your ISO to, for instance ISO 100 you take the square root of 100 = 10. To shoot the cloud at ISO 100 and utilize the 1/500 of a second shutterspeed, your f/stop would be f/10. Same ISO in open shade your exposure would be 1/30 f/10, or 1/60 f/5, 1/125 f/2.5

Known as 'camera obscura,' it disappeared than a sketching gadget for artists.
Then the researchers found the quality of silver nitrate that alters its color when exposed to light. This was the start of photogram, a method of making long-term images.
They would position things on the paper dipped in silver nitrate and expose it to the sunshine. After sometime the area covered under the things remained white while the rest of the area turned black. The image formed was momentary, so the technique did not last long.
Over the centuries, the principles, the technique and the material utilized in photography went through many changes. After explore various techniques like Daguerre and calotype process, finally collodion, or the damp plate technique was widely accepted.
