I took a series of classes when I bought my camera and the instructor told the story about his first photo shoot with a digital SLR instead of film. He said at one point he jumped euphorically up in the air and yelled, "I can change my ISO whenever I want to!!!"<br /><br />Tonight at dusk my husband and kids were playing tennis, as I was playing with my ISO. I concluded that there wouldn't be much in the way of crisp tennis shots, so I sat behind another net and focused on the net with the kids playing behind it. It has been so much fun to observe what people do to salvage a challenging light situation and make something beautiful out of it!Tracy P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07750283241399825265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-868710073251050332.post-58505828665795434032011-08-04T21:10:18.165-06:002011-08-04T21:10:18.165-06:00I have to get back to my camera!

You know I just realized that I thought the opposite about the grainyness of the shot.<br />I took a picture (that I just posted) about 2 hours ago and I used an ISO of about 800 and I can see that grainyness, and now I know I should have gone lower.<br />I am excited about this.

A flash is okay, but then it often looks like you used a flash unless you have a diffuser of some type or the ability to bounce the flash off of a ceiling or wall (hot shoe-type flash).<br /><br />I'd say experiment but go with the lowest ISO you can and still get a correctly-exposed shot. Your aperture and shutter speed will determine exposure as well.Teachinfourthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624243991120542485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-868710073251050332.post-2760226725295080882011-08-04T19:21:48.364-06:002011-08-04T19:21:48.364-06:00OK this is seriously something I have been playing...OK this is seriously something I have been playing with lately because, before this post, I really did not understand ISO. Now I do a little better - Thank YOu!<br /><br />So I have a question - What about indoors. Daylight, bright room, indoors - ISO high? Does it matter? Use a flash? I'm still experimenting but if you know the answer....CBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16911579093553356167noreply@blogger.com
