I'm using a nikon coolpix 5700 at the moment, and it uses non-standard (as compared to 35mm systems) apertures of say,
f/2.8-f/3.2-f/3.5-f/4.0
My Qn is simply: Does anyone know if each step increase in aperture of my camera is equivalent to "one stop" in the 35mm systems?
ie. Is the exposure at f/2.8 at 1sec equivalent to f/3.2 at 2sec?
Also, does it mean that the usual light meters are useless for digital cameras since they do not use the usual aperture sizes?
