ISO sensitivity

Concepts in Photography

The exposure of an image is determined by the sensitivity of the camera. This sensitivity is based on international ﬁlm standards, known as ISO standards. On digital cameras, this sensitivity rating is used

to represent the sensitivity of the digital mechanism that captures the image.

ISO sensitivity doubles as the number doubles. For example, an

ISO 200 setting is capable of capturing images at twice the speed of an ISO 100 setting. However, higher ISO settings can result in “noise”— small specks, spots, and other phenomena in a photo that give the shot a noisy or dirty appearance. As a general rule, it is best to use a low ISO setting to prevent noise in your photos, unless you are shooting in darkened environments or at night.

Changes in the quality and brightness according to ISO sensitivity

Because a low ISO sensitivity means the camera will be less sensitive to light, you need more light to have an optimal exposure. When using a low ISO sensitivity, open the aperture more or reduce the shutter speed to allow more light to enter the camera. For example, on a sunny day when light is abundant, a low ISO sensitivity does not require a low shutter speed. However, in a dark place or at night, a low ISO sensitivity and a fast shutter speed will result in a blurry photo.
