Can you please explain Exposure to me?


I took several photos in the snow and the exposure adjusted appropriately. I practiced inside and got this. I'm so confused. Is this accounted to the light emitting from outside into a darker room? And please explain this to me like you're talking to an elementary school student. I mean, really put it into laymen's terms. Visuals and demonstrations always help.

Here are my photos:

Camera: Nikon D3200
Manual setting
Regular lens

And before you suggest adjusting my settings, I know how to adjust settings. I'd like an explanation on how Exposure works!

In the photo with Exposure +5, the meter is reading that the light is low-- so the window light is bright, the exposure is high, the image comes out bright, but the meter is reading that the light is low. Does a higher Exposure necessarily mean that the image will be brighter? It seems more logical for the meter to read on the brighter scale if the camera is producing a bright photo with high Exposure.

With -5 Exposure, how is the meter registering to the light of the window but producing a dark photo? Why is that?

How to stop my videos from being bad quality?


I've recently just purchased a Nikon D5200, mainly for the purpose of filming, as I am studying film at A level. I recently submitted a short film, but was disappointed with how bad the quality was of the video. When I had originally put the videos onto my computer and played them back (using widows 8 video) they had seemed okay quality, yet as soon as I try and put them on any kind of editing software, they immediately lose quality. How do I stop this from happening?

Lens for a manual camera?
Added (1). I have a minota srt-102 and would like to try renting a new lens. Would I need a mirrorless lens or would a DSLR lens work? I've never changed the lens before so low price recommendation for a beginer to play with would be great. Thanks!

Will digital slr lenses work on film cameras if you use Manual focus?


Help! I signed up for a Photography class and my Professor wants us to only use film cameras. I bought a Nikon N8008 body on ebay because I thought I could still use all of my nikor lenses for my digital slr and just use manual focus. However my viewfinder will not focus. I don t know if it s because my lenses are only compatible with a digital camera or if there s something wrong with the film camera. To get an idea how blurry it is, I can t get it to focus enough to read numbers on a wall clock 10 feet away. Do I need a spacer possibly?
