[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 829287, member: 48483"] Low-key at it's most basic is an under-exposed image. So auto exposure modes should be off. That includes auto-ISO. I would begin with a fixed ISO and aperture you want for control of depth of field. Then dial in your exposure with shutter speed. If using strobes, then shutter is also going to be static so you manually adjust flash power lower. You can fine-tune with ISO if too dark. [/QUOTE]
