How to convert decades to stop (photographic)s
Convert through a plain ratio: decade → ratio → stop (photographic). Logarithmic units cannot be converted by multiplying alone.
Decade: A factor of ten. Bode plots are drawn per decade.
Stop (photographic): One stop doubles the light. Identical arithmetic to the octave.
