[QUOTE="J-see, post: 398030, member: 31330"] I think I figured out how to expose best in terms of quality but if wrong, feel free to correct me. We ETTR to improve the quality of our shot and there are basically two methods to push it to the right. We can either allow more light in by opening up the lens/slowing down the shutter or we can increase the ISO. In terms of quality it is always best to use the lowest ISO possible and maximize our light intake by selecting the widest aperture possible at the slowest shutter speed possible. Only after we can't change aperture or shutter because some minimum is required for that specific shot, we should increase ISO. For myself I discovered I shoot too often at settings limiting my light intake and too quickly increase ISO when not yet needed. [/QUOTE]
