SUN

Bad

Good

The sun must never be

allowed to shine directly

into the camera.

This is especially

important on east and

west approaches.

The camera visor

should be pulled

forward as far as

possible without

being allowed to

obstruct the camera

field of view.

The camera should never be

flat or level. It should always

be angled downward.
