LOL I am still waiting for Adobe to download, but I suck so bad at the technicals that I probably will be told to never touch another camera again for the rest of my life.

Oh well. I excel once others tell me I can't do something!

Oh yeah, I only took 2 photography courses in college, when I was in my early 20s. Now 20 years later, I am quite happy shooting by feel.

81%,
Missed two of the EV combinations because I don't normally change all three variables at the same time when I am shooting, and one of the "who said" questions. The one about shooting modes "portrait being the same settings as sports mode tricked me too. My P&S Fuji softens the focus in portrait mode.
I flunked, so I guess I should learn what I am doing or quit shooting.

Sounds like a plan :-)

Not to worry. I'm definitely not on the "Threats to Bears Ribbons Shooters" list. LOL.

Yeah...some of the "check all that apply" I only realized because I saw that there was more than one correct answer. I had troubles with the equivalent exposures though but one I blew entirely. Went with a smaller aperture rather than larger when the shutter speed decreased. Even if I don't know the math I should at least know the general theory. Grrrr...

Yeah, I counted that one as right on my sheet as there as it is not obvious that you were supposed to check all that apply. Only 4% on the people got it right, which means the question is very poor!

Only missed one, and i think it has two correct answers:

*************

Q.14: f11 @ 8th ISO 100 =

A. f11 @ 15th ISO 50
B. f2.8 @ 15th ISO 400
C. f8 @ 15th ISO 100 (they say is correct answer)
D. f22 @ 1 sec ISO 100
E. f16 @ 4th ISO 100 (my answer)

*************

Now, f/8, f/11, f/16 is 3 stops. 1/15, 1/8, 1/4 is 3 stops. So f/8 @ 1/15, f/11 @ 1/8, and f/16 @ 1/4 are all identical exposures...

Therefore, i say *prefect score for me!*

Ditto for me, except that I checked C, the first answer that I came to that was right.
