    Yes, I showed where the article is wrong. It has other things wrong as well in that article which have been commented on elsewhere.

    exposure is well defined and understood by 99.9% of photographers . just because your in the 0.1% means that you cant communicate with the other 99.9%
    what is precipitation ?

    Yes, easy. Here are a couple of examples how wrong they can be:
    "When you do override your camera and choose a specific ISO you’ll notice that it impacts the aperture and shutter speed needed for a well exposed shot. For example – if you bumped your ISO up from 100 to 400 you’ll notice that you can shoot at higher shutter speeds and/or smaller apertures."

    "Looking at our water analogy one last time, if we were to increase the pressure of the water that is being pumped through the pipe we would, of course, be able to collect more water. In photography this translates to sensitivity of the camera sensor to light. A higher ISO number indicates greater sensitivity of the sensor, meaning more light is being absorbed."

    Maybe so, but you, you ether belong to 0.1%, or simply having fun trying to confuse others. This is going out of hand, by the way.

    People communicating with DonaldB need to remember that when he uses the word exposure in sentences he means it to mean how light or dark an image looks on the medium the image is being viewed on. That is obviously a misconception but his choice and many other people's choice to make.

    He doesn't accept the correct technical definition of exposure - amount of light that struck the sensor per unit area while the shutter was open - which again is his choice to make.

    From the Collins dictionary:

    In photography, the exposure is the amount of light that is allowed to enter a camera when taking a photograph.

    It was established earlier this thread that this is clearly a troll thread.

    LOL.
    No, how don't you see that they forgot to mention light? You posted a counter-example to what they are saying just hours ago.

    I have been sticking to the topic discussed. We're discussing in part the lack of accuracy in the article you linked to.

    Which sentences in my posts do you believe are not true?

    what do you put in your car, Fuel, petrol, gas.? what is a product of trees wood ,timber, lumber ?
    exposure "the state of having no protection from something harmful."

    Yep, this is definitely a troll thread 🙂

    Huh? The sensitivity. Boosting ISO does not make the sensor more sensitive, it adjusts post shutter closing processing. But we know this, we posted a lot of posts making this clear.

    Which version of darktable (the brand name uses all lowercase)? It has changed a huge amount over the v3 versions. It's almost an entirely new product compared to v2.

    Yep, and I posted the misconception you use for the meaning and I posted what I and many other people accept as the meaning.

    We all make our own choices 😊
