Chris,
I believe this fellow's explanation of f-stops, et al., because:
1. It's precisely what I was taught at university in Photography 311,
the first of a series of required courses for photojournalism majors.
2. I have the full set of the Kodak Data Handbooks, and it is exactly
what they say, as per the quote I posted yesterday from the "Kodak
Lenses" portion. The same explanation is found in other diverse
publications on my shelves.
3. I have seen nothing, either in print or on the Internet, of an
authorative and credible nature that contradicts it.
4. He agrees with me, and that alone is reason enough to accept what
he says as being absolutely true and correct. :-)
