Why are image sensors rectangular when a camera’s image circle is… well, circular?

Sunny 16 thread

No.4481784 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Recently got a camera without a light meter, looking for some tips on how to meter by eye.
I get the principle behind sunny 16, and have the table in my head, but I'm constantly getting different readings from my (phone) light meter than I'm getting from my guesses using sunny 16.
Is it just practice?

Know the camera like a mechanic knows a car

Three sciences about light that'll help you understand: The science of photons, electromagnetic radiation, and bosons

Two technical concepts that'll help you understand how your camera works: How computers work, how chemistry works, and how the mechanics work in a camera. (Anon here like what the fuck computers? Yes anon your digital camera is a damn computer like a smartphone is a damn computer. Hell even in some cases a calculator can be a computer. And the next what the fuck statement is about film photography which is indeed chemistry.)

Last thing is knowing how all the programming and placement of the camera functionality is in your camera. Such as knowing what the hell C4k is in a Panasonic GH5 for example.

You do all this you would know your camera like a mechanic knows a car. Congratulations you are a step ahead in being a photographer or cinematographer.

The most important part about all of this is the hardest part which is does it make sense to you like any other art form?

what the hell happened to lighting? 40 years ago you'd have a nice controlled hairlight even on a presidential portrait
