albnok: i googled it and got a wiki page... it said.. "On a sunny day with ISO 200 film and aperture at f/16, set shutter speed to 1/200 or 1/250."

so does this mean that on a sunny day, i put the aperture to f16, then the ISO i use should be equivalent to the shutter speed i use...

eg: ISO 100, 1/100s
ISO 1600, 1/1600s

right or wrong?

to get a right exposure, you need to balance three (or four things)
1) ISO
2) Shutter speed
3) Aperture
4) flash power (when using a flash)

bright sunny condition - ask yourself what do you want to expose? what is the correct exposure for a dark object? what elements i can blow out? do i expose for the sky or the person?
all these will come naturally to you when you learn and snap more, just ask yourself what is the level of light in correlation to your subject. the beauty of photography is that the photographer decides the exposure, not the condition decides the image.

so back to the question, what do you want to expose on a bright sunny day? XD

same..it would be cropped as the 50 1.8..just dat the minolta one can be used on FF cameras,and d 50mm 1.8 cannot (it would still be cropped and not truly 50mm on FF as the minolta)

barrel distortion is when the center of an image actually looks like a barrel..

and the opposite (kinda) is the pincushion distortion... lol.
