In two weeks I will begin shooting my first short on S8. I am using a Canon 518 w/ a Sekonic L-28c2 light
meter. The film stock will be Kodak color negative vision3 200T. My question is: When setting the exposure on
the camera do I need to compensate in any way for the f-stop of the lense itself. For instance, if I have a
meter reading of 64 foot candles, with ASA 200 film @ 18 fps, do I set my exposure at f3.5? Or do I need to
also account for the lense f-stop, which for my camera is, f1.8??
I hope I'm asking the question properly/intelligibly.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer.
Stephen
