\nIf you can’t keep track of all of those f-numbers, then you should learn this essential trick.

\nKnowing the f-stop scale is important if you want to quickly and accurately expose your images, however many of us have a difficult time memorizing it. If you’re like me and can’t remember your own phone number half the time let alone a long sequence of f-stops, then this super simple equation will help you be able to do it with ease. Filmmaker Griffin Hammond shows you how to do it in the video below: \n<\/p>\n

\nThis method of memorizing the f-stop scale is so simple that I’m wondering why I never learned it in college. As Hammond explains, all you really have to remember are two numbers: 1 and 1.4. After that, you know the entire f-stop scale, because all you have to do is double the f-number to get the next in the sequence. \n<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\nFor example: \n<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n1, 1.4 (That’s the beginning of the sequence. Now, double them to get the next in the sequence.) \n<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n1, 1.4, 2, 2.8 <\/strong>(Now that you have those, keep going. You’ll have to round a few numbers up\/down occasionally.) \n<\/p>\n
