Manual-Automatic Comparison

And here is where it all fell apart. I switched to the Auto setting in the photo on the right for Shutter Priority exposure, and it was difficult to wrap my head around the difference in what I was determining by eyesight (1/60 at f8) and what the camera meter was reading. I had to drop the shutter speed down to 1/30 in order to get the meter to come off of pegging at f1.7, settling at f4.

 

As you can see, the film became very contrasty being around three stops overexposed.
