Good, great, correct, etc are only but a few of the many adjec-
tive related to exposure. As well as under, over, etc to express
less favourable results.
At the time of emulsion on acetate, exposure was the main word,
feature. Reading a negative, contact sheet, or E6's one could ap-
preciate easily the very importance of the results of the triangle
correct setup.
With this thread, I want to discuss and defend the position that
the term exposure IS obsolete… post SR that is!
With the ever extending limits of the DR, added to the many
fast improving and powerful features of engines, commenting
of the exposure when related to digital photography is making
— to me at least — no more sense.
Instead, I prefer to talk in term of rendition — since a not too poor-
ly exposed shot may well be rendered successfully and, as in so
many cases do not justify comments about the exposure because
the said digital improvements do not reveal the quality of it.
Thoughts?
