There's one other thing that very few people learn or intuitively understand: there's an enormous amount of light and visuals that we process due to our peripheral vision. While we may think the scene is 3:2 that we frame with a camera, in reality our brain captures 120-180 degrees of information outside the 3:2 frame which adjusts our perception of what would be in a photo vs. what would actually end up in a photo. Same goes with the light: if you want to know how the camera sees the scene, squint -- it would compensate for extra peripheral light.
