I have been going with 200 for the most part, but it is a bit dark in the woods, so I need to bump it to 800....is that about right? _________________ Eastern PA biking news, links, media and forums at http://rsdmag.com Posted: Thu Dec 23, 2004 1:32 pm Taz Site Admin   Joined: Sep 6, 2002 Posts: 1008169 Location: Door step of insanity ISO is the sensitivity of the camera to light. Higher ISO helps in lower light conditions but at the sacrifice of image quality. A photo will have more noise in it with higher ISO settings. I adjust my ISO setting to light conditions not to what the subject is. I shoot in the lowest ISO I can. What camera are you using? _________________ I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it.
