Sunrise/Sunsets
While it is hard to be general about the overall exposure for setting
sun with the sun in the frame, especially without knowing the exact
effect you are trying to achieve, I have taken numerous
sunrise/sunset shots, and these are the generak readings that seem to
work for me.

All at ASA64 (Kodachrome 64) yes, I know, the dreaded "K" word, but
this is all I presently shoot. I generally never use a zoom when
shooting directly into the sun, as they have a much greater tendency
to flare.
