for the sunny 16 rule, if you increase the ISO, say from 100 to 200, (increasing the light by 1 stop) you should also decrease the shutter speed by an equivalent number of stops. You can see the impact on http://www.camerasim.com

I'm going to see if I can download a PDF of the sunny 16 rule for various ISO settings.

the download worked, you just have to click on the download link! Once you master the ISO/Shutter Speed/Aperture triangle, you can then play with them to give your the effect you're looking for.
As an example: You want to decrease your depth of field, increase your shutter speed (say 1/125 to 1/500), then open your aperture 2 stops (from f/16 to f/8), the depth of field will be affected. But the amount of light falling on your sensor will be the same.
Another example: You are shooting in shade @ 1/125 @ f/8, but the photo is a little too dark (underexposed), boost the ISO by one stop and see the effect. You can do the same thing by opening the aperture on setting (to f/5.6) instead, but that will affect the depth of field.

ITUNES has a depth of filed app and an exposure app. You can put in info about your camera, lens, focal length, etc.

Might want to Google for "Photo Exposure Triangle."

I have a free app on my Ipod called "DSLR for Dummies". I does include a good table for different lighting scenarios and different events. I would look at the free ones first before buying one.

Here's one that should get you started. I have made it full res so that you can download it, print it, and carry it with you.
Hope this helps.

But remeber this chart is for film and includes adjustments for reciprocity failures... NOT for Digital Sensors.
