[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 415035, member: 13090"] If it helps, just forget about the "18%" part. I don't use it and prefer to say, "middle grey" instead. We could get needlessly technical on this point about the actual percentages and so forth but there's really not much point in it. Suffice it to say middle grey is a tone that is pretty much halfway between absolute black and absolute white on a lightness scale as seen by the human eye. It's right down the middle, if you will. Average. This what the camera's meter uses... The "average". Get it? If you're not, don't worry... It'll sink in eventually. :D [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
