I'm having an issue with finding a definitive answer about stops. When you say that, for instance, using a ND 0.6 cuts 2 stops of light, is this referring to the f-stops on the lense or is it a messurment of light. Does a stop equal a certain amount of foot candles or does it simpley means that I can drop down two f-stops? Also, is f2.4 to f2.8 be considered a half a stop and not another stop till I get to f3.4 and what about when I get up to f4.0? Is that a full stop or not till f4.8? I understand what f-stops do for light and depth of field, I understand measurement of light in Kelvin, foot candles and Lux's but I've never found a complete clear answer about stops.
