I've had my camera for like 2+ years, and I still don't know some things about it because I'm to lazy to look it up, so could someone please tell me what the:
EV setting its? You can change it from -2.0EV to +2.0 EV. .. . what is this for?
and
ISO setting. . ? you can have it on Autu, 100, 200, or 400. .. ? what is this for?
Thank you!
EV is basically the exposure. If you're in a dark place, you want to set the number higher. If its brighter you want to set it to a negative number. In neutral conditions, leave it at 0 :)
The ISO is the shutter speed, more or less. In darker conditions (night time, etc) set it to a higher ISO to let in more light. For action shots, set it to a lower ISO.
The only problem with using higher ISOs is that the shutter is open longer so it makes more noise on the picture. So I usually always have mine on 50 or auto.
the 100,200,400 is like in manual cams, if you have a film 100 ISO it "burns" with light so its used for outdoors and 400īs "burn" with less light so can be used indoors, but not sure if its the same in digis, also when using a 100 if you enlarge yo can see like dots, because "burning dots are bigger in 100īs" and in 400īs you can enlarge and dont see them cause they are smaller.............
^ Isn't that basically "noise" though??
When I use a higher ISO, I get more noise in my pictures, so I don't tend to use higher ISO unless I'm shooting like, lightning or something.
Ok, thank you!! :D
