The higher the lighting ratio, the higher the contrast of the image the lower the ratio, the lower the contrast. Light can be measured in footcandles . A key light of 100 footcandles and a fill light of 100 footcandles have a 1 1 ratio a ratio of one to one . A keylight of 800 footcandles and a fill light of 200 footcandles has a ratio of 4 1. The ratio can be determined in relation to F stop s since each increase in f stop is equal double the amount of light 2 to the power of the difference in f stops is equal to the first factor in the ratio. For example, a difference in two f stops between key and fill is 2 squared, or 4 1 ratio. A difference in 3 stops is 2 cubed, or an 8 1 ratio. No difference is equal to 2 to the power of 0, for a 1 1 ratio. In situations such as motion picture lighting sometimes the lighting ratio is described as key plus fill to fill alone.
