f11 = 80 footcandles
f16 = 160 footcandles
f19
(between f16 and f22) = 240 footcandles

Are these secret encoded plans you're posting for the benefit of your socialist ACORN buddies?

FC's are just another way to measure light.... that's all. not really relevant to shooting with a DSLR. for instance when I worked on sitcoms we put the keys at about 70fc's and the fill around 40fc, on the news the keys came in at 100fc's and the backlights at 125fc's.

I haven't used a foot candel meter since the TV days. the last film I worked on we metered using F stops (think it was 'jack frost' with michael keaton) the set I was working on was llit at F 5.8 @ 500 asa, which is pretty unusual for a film. most films are lit between F2 and F4 with clarity and detail pulled with shutter speed from what I can figure out.

I'm buying a new light monday that is rated in FC's, that's why I looked all this crap up... the light puts out a 9.1 circle at 10 feet with 520 FC; here's some FC info.

First off... its not about shooting that gave a shit about. It was purely to know what is what.

second... I very rarely use auto. Im all about manual. I like to fuck with depth and everything involved... Cant do that at will with auto
