Hi all, i always seem to have trouble getting good shots in the middle of the day on a nice sunny day. they seem to get too much exposure. im going to the beach 4x4ing tomorrow and would like to get some good shots.

1.what settings would be recomended for taking a pic of a 4x4 tring to get up u hill on the sand on a bright sunny day?

2.what settings for capturing still car shots or ppl at a bbq?

tips much appreciated, i use manual settings, what exposure, F number and ISO number would i use. thankyou.
