Bernie,
CC your question
  "suppose I have determined the f-stop I need. How does this
translate into exposure time?"
Answer: your hand held light meter should tell you that. Exposure
time varies according to present lighting conditions. If you don't
use a light meter, you are on your own, and you will also waste a lot
of footage doing motion picture that way. Also it won't be "the
F-stop you need". What it will be is the ONLY F-stop that you have,
and so you match exposure time accordingly. Unless of course you make
interchangable pinhole apertures.
