3.0. ISO - best ISO settings for your digital camera

Показать описание

Understanding ISO will finally make you master the brightness of your images.
There are many misconceptions in regard to ISO in the web. So what does ISO do? It does not make your camera more sensitive to light. What ISO does is amplify the incoming light similar to what you would do with your photos in your editing software.

But this video covers much more like an ISO comparison and max. ISO settings.

Here is a complete List of the lessons and movies of our free photography course:
0. Welcome
Just a short welcome to our free photography course
1. Exposure
An intro to exposure and its components Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO
1.1. Aperture
Did you know that the Aperture is just a hole in the lens of your camera and that you can compare it to a window to better understand photography?
1.2. Shutter Speed
The secrets behind Shutter Speed and how the shutter in your camera works. Take better photos by understanding Shutter Speed
1.3. ISO
ISO is a very important component in photography. With modern cameras you can take much better use of ISO. But what is ISO and how does ISO influence your images?
2. The effects of Aperture and Shutter Speed
Aperture and Shutter Speed can do much more than just brightening up your image. Aperture is important to blur the background of your portraits and Shutter Speed will freeze your images when you photograph fast movement, or blur the water of waterfalls.
2.1. The effects of Aperture Part I
See how the Aperture changes the sharpness of your foreground and background. In this movie we make an Aperture experiment that you can easily follow with your own camera.
2.2. The EFFECTS of APERTURE Part II
learn which aperture to choose in different situations. This video covers aperture settings macro photography, landscape photography and architecture photography
2.3. The EFFECTS of APERTURE Part III
learn how to blur the background in portraits. See the difference between small and large aperture and enhance your photography.
2.4. The EFFECTS of SHUTTER SPEED Part I
let´s do a short shutter speed experiment together to understand the difference between long and short shutter speeds.
2.5. The EFFECTS of SHUTTER SPEED Part II
Learn how a slow shutter speed blurs motion to understand how to avoid motion blur using faster shutter speeds.
2.6. SHUTTER SPEED and its EFFECTS PartIII
the 3 factors that determine how fast your shutter speed has to be in order to freeze motion.
2.7. SHUTTER SPEED and its EFFECTS PartIV
Best Shutter Speeds to Freeze Motion.
2.8. CAMERA MODES and Chapter Summary
What camera modes you really need for taking great pictures

Great intro video. Worth pointing out the base cause of image noise: Underexposure. When you can't adjust aperture or shutter speed further, you are deliberately underexposing your image by increasing the ISO, which tells the camera to boost the image brightness coming off the sensor by increasing either analog or digital gain, which will also increase background signal noise. People don't realise that increasing ISO means deliberate underexposure, since they have been taught the Exposure Triangle, so ISO is part of Exposure to them. When Bryan Peterson wrote his book in the 90s, he called the relationship the Photographic Triangle, which is correct. Others called it the Exposure Triangle, which in the days of film at least is understandable. But through camera makers deliberately confusing the issue to convert existing photographers to digital, few have caught on that analog and digital ISO are different things, since they retained not just the name, but the relationship to aperture and shutter speed. So even today when you go to FStoppers or other respected sites, they teach you that ISO increases the sensitivity of the sensor. Even if they are deliberately dumbing down a concept they know is wrong, they are further embedding a misunderstanding.
Incidentally, one of the reasons I chose a Fuji camera, which has a different colour array than other cameras, is that it has zero chromatic (colour) noise, which to me makes it more film-like and pleasing. It's also worth noting that some cameras, like Fuji, seem to have more than one digital-to-analog converter, or at least a different strategy such as applying noise reduction to the Raw data, which kicks in at a certain ISO. In Fuji's case, that is ISO 800, so I keep in mind that ISO 400 to 640 has more noise than ISO 800, so you might as well go straight to that if you have to raise ISO above 400.

OMG! This is so nice of you. I've been trying to sign up for a photography school but just subscribing to and watching some of your videos alone has given me hopes. I'm just getting into photography and doing it as a side business. This is what I exactly need. I own a canon EOS R and bought some extra lenses and accessories, please I would love to get some tips from you as a beginner. Thanks so much, I truly appreciate you.

i have to photo graph inside the temple which iso best without flash

mohandass

I have a Canon 60D would this be considered an entry-level camera? I don't mind if it is because I'm an entry-level photographer, at the moment. I'm trying again tonight.
