What is ISO in digital cameras, what is it?
I HAVE A GUN SX100, and has an ISO that can be changed from 80 to 2,600, BUT WHAT IS THE ISO? I mainly take pictures outdoors and indoors with good amount of light entering. MUST BE SET MAX ISO OR UNDER, REFERRED TO 80 OR 2600? THANKS.
ISO is a measure of sensitivity to light of a light-sensitive surface, a film or digital sensor. A low ISO like 80 or 100 will give the best results in terms of image quality is concerned. In low light, no flash photography will have to use a higher ISO, like 2600. Can use a program like Noise Ninja to clean up the resulting noisy images. Remember the old rule of the "Sunny Article 16." Says: "On a sunny day, set your aperture (f-stop) to 16 and the shutter speed 1/ISO." This means that if you're using ISO 100 that would to use a shutter speed of 1 / 125 @ f16 rude. PS: Please stop using all caps – is considered "shouting" and is.
