[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 499794, member: 13090"] Well, as Wayne pointed out, DSLR's, generally speaking, use a base ISO of ISO100. To create, say, ISO400, the sensitivity of the sensor is [I]electronically increased[/I] to match what we call ISO400. In short, all ISO's are calculated using ISO100 as a starting point. This is why ISO100 is called the "Native ISO"; it is the starting point from which any other ISO is calculated, either up or down. The so-called "sweet spot" of a lens, meaning the aperture at which it shoots the sharpest is, typically, one or two stops down from the maximum aperture for that particular lens. It would take someone with a much deeper understanding of physics and optics and such to explain why this is the case. These are two entirely different concepts and as far as I can tell they don't have anything to do with one another. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
