Recently promoted to Good Article, long enough, within policy. QPQ done. Hook interesting, first part cited, but I could not find any content or reference to finding the number of stops between two exposures. Suggest shorter hook:

- The hook source is on the sentence "A single stop of exposure is one unit on a base-2 logarithmic scale." But ALT1 is ok with me. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:10, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
