As resident cheeky whippersnapper, I do happen to know ASA=American
Standards Association and ISO=International Standards Association without
looking them up.
Now, there was a post about the loony f/4 rule, where exposure for subject
lit by full moon is 1/ASA in days at f:4. So, for 400 speed film, exposure
would be 1/400 of a day, or 86400secs/400, 216 seconds. If there is half a
moon, would the exposure time be 432secs or is the relationship nonlinear?
