Here’s some ideal ISO settings for different scenarios!
Photo ISO Settings:
Daylight / bright conditions: 100-400
Afternoon / Sunset: 400-800
Evening / Night: 800-3200 (stick to lower isos if your image looks too grainy)
Video:
Always stick to Native ISO. If it’s too bright add an nd filter. Too dark, try finding light or you can bump iso up a bit, just try to stick to native iso for best performance

Great series. It’s time to round it up and drop a video on the exposure triangle and explain how ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture work together.
Thanks for your time and efforts!

[@victor.melchorfilm]

Thanks for watching and you're spot on with that! I'm planning on making the full exposure triangle video later this month :)

Damn, saw the thumbnail and that city is where I grew up. Still have family out there and visit as often as I can. Super neat!

@@aidandestefano7514 Hey good eye! It’s such a great spot for photos and overall vibes!

For more casual uses, all three settings "adjust brightness" but they also:
- Time: controls motion blur
- Aperture: controls depth of focus
- ISO: controls image quality at lower light levels
Personally, I prefer to use my camera on "semi-manual" (specifically A / Av). I will go full manual when needed, but it's much more convenient to leave the most flexible setting (in my case, time) on auto.

[@victor.melchorfilm]

Yep! My past two videos I went over how aperture and shutter speed affect your image. My goal with this series was to educate people within 2 minutes, but I'm planning on making another video about the exposure triangle combining all 3 settings.
Nice! I mostly shoot video so I don't find myself using aperture priority, however I definitely want to put more time into photography so I'll have to give that mode a try!
