PinkDamsel Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I see several recommendations for "low ISO setting", but what is ISO? I don't find that acronymn in my camera's manual. Would some kind person please enlighten this ignorant damsel? Link to comment

Withers Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 All of that info converted into something you can actually use: A higher ISO allows you to shoot in darker environments, but it will also introduce a lot of noise to the picture. A low ISO is best for aquarium photography but you'll likely need a tripod or table to set the camera on since it will require longer exposures. Not all cameras have the capability to adjust it.

PinkDamsel Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Aha! Film speed. Thank you, and thanks for translating the mumbo-jumo! Can't set it, but at least I know what it is. Link to comment
Lalani Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Film speed is actually called ASA. ISO is a digital term. Just a random tidbit of info! Link to comment
