Manual Camera Help
I recently got into photography and took in the family's old 35mm Olympus camera. Please note that this is from the 70s and has a rainbow neck strap to match its age. Its all manual and I'm having trouble understanding the F stops and all the depth of field things. If anybody can help me figure out all the different settings on the camera please send me a message at TheBecka.
Any tips appreciated.

They sure are difficult (manual cameras) to say the very least. I had to use them for a photojournalism course and it was murder. I recommend that you buy a photography for dummies (or idiots) book as I remember guidlnes to using the camera, setting F/stops and shutter speed are all covered.
I did manage to scrounge up a few links which may or may not provide guidance here. This link goes into detail about shutter speeds and F/Stops and should help you before it becomes confusing later on [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
This link is a photograph article for young people on aperatures, F Stops and speeds which should be useful [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
This is supposed to be an idiots link about F stops and shutter speeds and aperatures [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Finally, I found this Wikipedia link for you too on F/stops [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
