[photoshopforall]

does nikon D50 can do csl/ strobist?

[langley2205]

Not sure what this means. RB.

[Hackiesacker007]

Thank you, this really helped.

Is ISO also used for fast, action shots?

[langley2205]

Hi, thanks for the comment. ISO as such will not help with action shots. More likely you will find a faster shutter speed such as 1/500 or 1/1000th useful, but this can often be made possible by the use of a higher ISO setting. Depends as ever on how much light you have available.

[Kittychan717]

So helpful!

[wildride86]

Great learning video, thanks!

[SaX665]

which camera did u use to record these all

[langley2205]

Nikon D50

[aligerous]

Great tutorial. Thank you.

[tradigan]

Thank you for posting the tutorial Mr. Brown. You are a wonderful teacher.

[langley2205]

Depends on the focal length of the lens. A wide angle is much easier to hand hold than telephoto. 4x6 pictures can certainly be unsharp, but you're right, the more you enlarge them, the more unsharp they will look . RB.

[greg5566]

What causes the noise?

[langley2205]

Excellent question. The chip is in fact the same sensitivity all the time. In order to give a higher ISO, the signal from the chip is amplified more and this produces the noise.

[liquidchylde]

wow!!!I hate reading the manual...this is very helpful for beginners like me..thanks a lot!

[phroggyy]

Thank you! How did you make it show on the TV?

[humanage2]

thank you sir.

[Orangekissin]

very useful info. thanks!

[gokusen87]

thank you dude.. you the man!

[sxephlI]

thank you very much , ISO has always been a bit of a confusing subject for me, even when shooting in a studio, i would tend to avoid the ISO even if i had it too high, which was making my work too grainy. does anybody know what the best ISO and shutter speed would be for a nice studio shoot, im looking for a natural style image, but i still want it to look very professional. (something warm, not too brightly lit etc)

[Dxmpr72]

very informative and well explained

[bigsmooth71]

Well done, love the examples that you showed they were perfect.

[martinaee]

You probably know this Langley2005, but on the D50 you don't have to ALSO hold down the exposure compensation when changing the iso. you can just hold down the iso button on the back then turn the rear rotation dial.

[martinaee]

SmallWorldFilms:

Don't be discouraged by the D50 being "old" I have one too and though I'm upgrading to a D90 I don't expect the overall results to be incredibly superior (if you have good lenses). Mainly more pro cameras just make it easier to make good pictures, but don't really make the end result that much superior. Remember... a person who knows what they are doing can do amazing things with a point and shoot whereas a person who has no idea wouldn't be able to get anywhere with a D3! :)

[ashishtandon07]

Thank you so much Sir for posting this tip. It gives us starters a clear idea about how to use the ISO. Thank you so much again.

[bryanmania]

PERFECT!!!

[SmallWorldFilms]

This was very helpful. I also use a Nikon D50. I know, I know, it's old but I have so much to learn that I'm sure I wont want a newer camera for a while. And I'm loving it anyway.

[AlexandrasRun]

thank you! you explained it very well. and your voice was very pleasant. =P

[showme85]

higher the speed better for sports shots or fast moving pictures

[YooTubeify]

Incredible movie! Needed to know what ISO was... Got a new 350D and your movie was PERFECT! I now know what ISO is! Thanks!

[hajeh]

wow, thanks

[dsdspsp22]

10 thumbs up

[Kusacubari]

Good work, Im a newb, and you actually taught me shutter speed, appature rate and iso - been reading for hours without it being shown/describes so very well. No school like the old skewl eh langley - indeed udaman!

[WessexAVgal]

Excellent, clear explanation & very well presented. :-) very helpful and useful.

[athelionravi]

I am using a Kodak M883. I want to do some good photos for HDR. Can you help on adjust the settings for really good results?

[athelionravi]

Hi. What is the camera that you are using please? Looks high end professional

[langley2205]

Hi

Thanks for your question. It's a Nikon D50 which was the entry level DSLR when new. Equivalent now would be a D40.

Rich.

[fusera99]

great!

[eoa05]

Very nice video. Thanks

[ps3cube123]

Eyy greaaaaaaaaattttttttt video it was awesome

[QueensBuses]

Great tut! It helped a lot, thanks!

[SA300]

Outstanding presentation. Many thanks.

[geritolic]

Big help for me.  Thanks

[electricguitarfreak1]

Great Video! you should show the same picture at different speeds though.

[langley2205]

Thanks to everyone who suggested showing a comparison of the same picture taken at different ISO speeds. I'll certainly incorporate it in the new version of this video on my upcoming website.

Cheers, Richard

[Hybrid93Hatch]

Great info!! I love the free youtube vids you guys post to help us nQQbies out :-)

[lexpaces]

true info on the last part of this video, lowest iso you can, :o)

[HeeroNL]

Thanks for making this video! I just started DSLR photography, and this vid helped me a lot.

Thanks!

[ponniyinselva]

The best tutorial! One suggestion: It would've been great if you had shown the same picture at different ISO settings.

Any plans for posting more videos?

[drix01]

Great tutorial.

[petrak28]

Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much!!!

[NZPhantom]

That was really good, thank you very much

[photographyatitsbest]

you dont have to hold down the exposure compression button

to change the ISO on the d50

[langley2205]

That's correct. In fact, that comment is true of pretty well all DSLRs. The exposure compensation will affect the shutter speed, aperture or both depending on the exposure mode you have set, but not usually the ISO.

[reesemitchell]

Thank you so much i been wondering what that was

[hotchick4000]

Birmingham city :) yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

thanx alot for the useful information

[jonnyfied]

how do i know which iso # to use for a given setting?

[langley2205]

There is no hard rule for which setting to use. Generally, the answer is to always use the lowest ISO that the lighting situation will allow. So usually in bright sunlight 100ISO (if you have it) or 200ISO is fine. In lower light, or if you want to use a faster shutter speed say for action shots, you might want 400ISO. In low light indoors without flash, you are likely to be up to 800 or 1600, or even higher, but you will pay the price in terms of 'noise'. Hope this helps.

[Yark0]

Very good! Now I finally Understand ISO!

[vgiroux]

Perfect, thank you! You described it well, us simple folk understand...

[rathersad]

Your tutorial is great. Any more on the way?

[AVMaestro]

Very clearly explained

[3rdImage]

Very clear sound and diction. Hooking up to the monitor is a good idea to help show the menu settings. I guess this is aimed at a beginner, so unless they have a similar Nikon it might get confusing trying to find the same settings on their own camera.
