Hi all,
Being not particularly mathematically inclined (to put it very
charitably), I was wondering if any of you could point me toward a sort
of online idiot's guide to understanding and calculating exposure
values, depth of field, and other basics along those lines. I figure
having at least a loose grasp on details of that nature might be helpful
as I dip a toe into the world of analog.
I've posted an entry on my photo blog concerning some of the basics that
I'm already familiar with, and plan to chart my progress as I go along.
Granted, what I've written is geared toward people who know even less
about photography than I do (as hard to conceive as that may be), but it
can be found here:

It's a first baby step on a long journey, but I'd like to document it as
I go along, and share it with anyone who might be interested. So,
essentially, I do understand the stuff they probably teach you in the
first week of Introduction to Photography 101 -- but largely on an
intuitive, practical level. Are there any resources on the web where a
simpleton can go to familiarize himself with those principles on a more
technical level?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
