Camera Tutorials - ISO

[ZaphodsPlanet]

It might be worth mentioning that ... or wasn't ISO primarily used to identify the light sensitivity of 35mm film. Higher ISO meant faster shutter speeds to get the same image... or the film was more sensitive to light.... this also meant you could take a picture of a high speed event (sports/racing/fast moving anything) and get a still shot that wasn't blurred. But that's basically what you're saying w/o mentioning old fashioned film...LOL. Thanks for all your videos. They're helpful.

[SickoZone]

can't we just put it on auto? i got the t3i.

[QQQQcon]

@SickoZone you can do that if the iso doesnt matter that much.

[thecreativewebshow]

ok.... so why don't you just NOT use ISO at all, and just adjust shutter speed? because there will be no grain on faster shutter speeds and none on slower exposures

[QQQQcon]

@thecreativewebshow first off shutter speeds are way to slow in low light at low iso for hand held pictures. For still shots in low light you will need a tripod if you want to use low iso. Also if you take low light action shots you cant use a slow shutter at all so you have no choice but to raise the iso.

[joetylerdale]

Great informative, quick, concise video. And no bizarre music, TY!

[ixamraxi]

Your video is slightly misleading, ISO and shutter speed have a dependent relationship, but they are independent things. The reason you change the shutter speed is to /compensate/ for the increased sensitivity to light. Think of filling up a bucket with water, where ISO is the size if the bucket, The width of the hose is aperture, and the amount of time water is flowing is shutter speed, and your goal is to fill the bucket precisely [where you want], without over filling or under filling.

[joetylerdale]

@ixamraxi Humm, maybe you should do a video.

[corelmanjim]

Great job as always. Your videos are always very informative and easy to follow. Your presentation of the subject is very detailed. Keep up the great work and I look forward to more of your videos.

[neilalli]

I can never get your name; please say it loud and slow.

[negathief]

so, if im not mistaken, the ISO setting is there, to prevent blurry images?

and what if i want to take a picture from a city at night or something? Will i have alot of the noise in the picture?

Just got a nikon d3100 and im new to this, sorry to ask silly questions

[QQQQcon]

@negathief if it is still life you can use a tripod instead of high iso

[dynastyflygon]

great video!

very helpful!

[teen4writing]

EXCELLENT tutorial! Very pleasant to listen to as well. 6 people must have been jealous! THANK YOU!

[Sean96864]

thanks soo much for making this! i'm am looking into purchasing the Nikon D7000 as a beginner as it has been recommended to me by many. i know how to use DSLR's as i use my friends very often. i Had no clue what ISO meant up until i watched this video. it was very useful. thanks alot (:

[mxzx4321]

I have a canon rebel xs on my setting Tv the picture is almost black please help

[OssyTuber]

Very good, concise guide. Thank you, I will be bookmarking and viewing again.......and most probably again lol. Thank you.

[111kingz]

great tutorial..thank you man.

[bushwicusa2001]

great vid man

[cachoaventuras]

so you took a carmera and film your camera...lol

[kimple8]

you have the most simplest explanation, really helps a lot of beginners like me. thanks.

[HxXFromFirstToLastXx]

so confusing

[anesthesiac]

These are really detailed, helpful tutorials. Thank you so much for uploading :)

[Xyb3rTeCh]

nikon sucks! canon 7D handle noise very well at iso 6400!

[thuyhl81]

Finally someone explains it well enough to understand. Thank you!

[Billyboy3934]

A really great job explain ISO, especially for a beginner like me.

[govintagenet]

Thanks for this lesson.

[Amirichi]

question: why when i use lower iso (100), the photo turns out darker than higher iso (800) ?

[momenkhalled]

haloooo>>>>>>>see my channel

[MBDragracer]

Thank you very much,this was just what I was looking for

[123456789noursary123]

Thank you , it really helped

[ProMarkChris]

How does taking a photo in darker conditions at higher ISO mean more light gets to the sensor? Isn't that like saying the quicker the shutter speed is the more the light gets in? There's surely a reason and something I'm not understanding, but that seems counter-intuitive to me

[vanessiesmith3230]

Is ISO the abbreviation of three words? Or are these letters picked randomly?

[QQQQcon]

@ctkallday666 50 iso film is used for landscape photography

[GabrielKnightz]

Hey this was very helpful Thanx, im favoriting it incase i forget again lol

Quick question though, how does ISO relate to Exposure? I read some online explanations, but none of it made any sense to me. . .

[ajolsen4544]

for everyone with more iso setting questions, basically ISO is how much light it takes to make a photo. A high ISO needs less light. 400 is basically a catch all and a good starting point. Good rule is higher ISO, less light needed (and better with action because you can utilize faster shutter speeds) so...Lower iso, more light needed and then can utilize slower shutter speeds. but keep in mind the camera is a synthesis of aperture, shutter speed, iso. you need to keep track of all 3.

[ajolsen4544]

great explanation Connor you definitely love photography and it shows!

[ajolsen4544]

talking to a photo guru the other day, he tuned me into the idea that if you go back and look at film, ISO is basically the number of crystals on the film that capture light. It works the same way on a digital sensors. so the noise is explained by the extra crystals being oversaturated giving you the "grains of sand" you discuss. Also keep in mind higher ISO can give you a higher resolution, the slower ISO basically scrubs out the extra crystals which can give clearer pic, but sacrifice data

[SummerWizz1]

whats a good iso to leave it on? i have it set to like 500 right now

[sollyjim]

Best ISO tutorial on youtube. Answer's the what, where, why and when perfectly for a beginner.

[valleystylez1]

how does the ISO work in conjunction with your aperture? Please answer.

[labeautyconnection]

THANKS. THATS GREAT INFO.

I AM REALLY ENJOYING ALL YOUR VIDIOS.

WISH I FOUND YOU SOONER.

[CaribbeanMX]

hi photosucker

[jeromie89]

that is really helpful!! most other people just keep chatting on about stuff i dont understand!! lol xxx

[livxlaughxluv]

Thanks so much for this video! I've been trying to learn more about photography, this is very helpful! You rock!

[danielduarte11]

u lost me

[dchappell128]

great tutorial im just about to buy my first high quality camera and i didnt have a clue what iso was before i watched this, thanks.

[MrKaramjbara]

awesome tutorial but i have 1 question:

can the ISO change the shutter speed?

[QQQQcon]

@MrKaramjbara if it is on manual it wont, but on other settings it will automatically change shutter speed.

[MrKaramjbara]

@QQQQcon thanks!

[bboylilsoul]

If u put your cam on manual u cant use a iso on 100 and fx a shutter speed on 1000 ??

[StrangeDrawingArt]

tnx for this video it helped me!!

[hahayoullneverknow]

i finally understand iso thank you and by the way your battery is low. just sayin

[crowinarow]

Good explantion on ISO! thank you.

[mrledfeb]

what does ntsc stand for??? i am trying to work out how to video record

[MrRhysSir]

aweesome thanks!!

[ossamos]

How is the ISO on D90 compared to the D300, considering the new NR feature in the D90 for High ISO ?

[QQQQcon]

@ossamos nikon d90 has slightly better noise control

[Xyb3rTeCh]

@ossamos no, actually canon 550D, 60D and 7D are much better in noise control. nikon noise is really horrible!

[samur420]

excellent tutorial, thanks

[kealan8010]

thanks for that, Excellent tutorial.

[iroddo]

hey man, i was wondering how do you know so much about cameras and how the hell can you afford all those lenses =P.

have you ever been on workshops?

[masticina]

Ah usefull stuff isn't it. I had to use ISO 800 at a local event in the night once and yeah for modern sensors. The images we're still usable!

[laliths]

Thanks for this info.
