Yashica Lynx-14E - Shooting in Backlight

EXPOSURE SETTING WHEN SHOOTING AGAINST LIGHT
Exposur e rea ding taken by approaching th e prime
15 s ubject
When shooting aga inst light or photographing a
subject near a
window , or against an excessively
brig ~ nt background such as snow-covered landsc,!pe,
the prime subject is liable to appear extreme ly
dark (under-€xposed) if exposure is set in the
normal manner.
To obtain sparkling results in such cases (See lower
photo), approach your prime subject and take
exposure reading
by seeing to it that the bright
light in the background is warded off from the
I ight acceptor.
I n case the prime subject cannot be approached,
proper compensation must be made by adjusting
the lens aperture. (See footnote on page 16)
