Photography Adventures

So starting from now on, I will be doing a segment about my photography adventures. When I learn more about cameras, so do you! So check back every week for my special edition.

Today's Edition is: ISO.

For all you point-and-shooters don't bother reading on (just go to Best Buy, get yourself a digital SLR, then come back and read this).

ISO is basically your camera sensitivity to light. For a majority of situations, your ISO should be set to around 100-200 depending on your type of camera. But sometimes, when its dark outside and your flash is not enough, you may have to bump it up a couple notches. Of couse, keep in mind that the more you bump up your ISO, the lower the quality of your picture (this is refered to as "image noise").
