[QUOTE="stmv, post: 112419, member: 10038"] all depends on if I am hand carrying or using a tripod and which lens. I have a decent stance, and steady stance, so depending upon the lens (shorter lens can hand hold well to 1/30th, yes, sometimes to 1/15th but taking a chance, longer lens start doupling the speed, until I am not comfortable to hand carry less than 1/250th or faster. and then next I think aperature,,, do I want shallow dof, best accuracy/quality, or for some reason want to miminize fstop to min opening,, etc then see how low I can have the ISO for the conditions above, always striving to keep the ISO as low as possible DEPENDING ON CAMERA. When I first started, beyound ISO 200 could see degrade,, but each generation seems to double what I call the natural design point of the sensor, Now I seem to be able to push to say ISO 800 with almost no degrade in quality, but much beyound ISO 1200, and I can still see noise enter into the equation. So,, I never shoot in auto ISO,, and just decide where I want to be, and while it takes more than a minute to summarize, the actual effort is in seconds, and well at this point, automatic even (manual mode of course). Only time I shoot auto is in cases where I don't have much time. [/QUOTE]
