Understanding the ISO

Christopher

What is ISO?
ISO is of the camera sensor’s sensitivity to light. A sensor with lower sensitivity (lower ISO) requires a longer exposure while a sensor with higher sensitivity (higher ISO) can shoot the same scene with the same exposure at a shorter exposure. Unlike film cameras whose ISO depends on the type of film used, digital cameras have the ability to change the sensitivity of the sensor at any time.

Enhancing Your Pictures I

Christopher

What we have here is a picture of water droplets on a leaf taken by the Canon IXUS 60. It’s a decent picture but it lacks the ‘umph’. Now, there are a lot of photo-editing software out there which you can purchase/grab. However, I will only discuss Adobe Photoshop as that is my current favourite photo-editing program at the moment. I have used Lightroom before though.
