Shooting slide film on beach with color matrix or center weighted?
I hear that a camera with a spot meter is what you need to get good shots of a sandy beach. Is that true? How can I shoot a beach and get proper exposure without a spot meter? PS im a n00b
I have never shot @ a beach
shooting with Nikon N65
You don't NEED spot metering. Do you have a telephoto lens? If yes, then you can use the cameras meter like a spot meter. Just zoom in on what you want exposed properly and take a reading.
Slide film takes underexposure better than overexposure. But to be honest you want to be about as spot on as you can be. Meter for the highlights of the sand and the shadows and try to figure out what's the center, leaning towards exposing the sand properly.
Center weighted is closer to spot metering.
