On a clear sunny day, set the aperture to f16 and the shutter speed to the inverse of the film speed (e.g. 1/100 (or 1/125) for ISO 100, 1/200 (or 1/250) for ISO 200, etc). Of course, you can elaborate from there - f 8 and 1/500 for ISO 100 film for example.
You probably should use print film for this, since it is more forgiving in exposure than slide film.
