Who else here always shoot on ISO 100 (or respectively the lowest ISO possible)?
Under no circumstances I go higher.
Just wondering how (un)common this attitude is.

well its hard for example if your doing low light street witch is what i mainly do to have an ISO lower than 800 with any lens past 2f.
but for landscapes and what have you yes i lower the ISO.
its pretty uncommon as a high shutter speed might capture a moment and result in a nicer pic than a lower ISO slow shutter would.
>>2699503
...WHY?
With early digital cameras I always tried to optimize my ISO usage religiously, as pushing a stop higher usually meant terrible things, but with today's modern sensors it's no problem to shoot at 400-1600 and expect little to no degradation.
>>2699503
It's not an uncommon attitude among pleb beginners.
It becomes very uncommon as you get more experience and you realize that sharp and noisy is always better than blurry and clean.

>1600
just mentioning my fooji with clean iso 6400.
I don't always shoot ISO 100.
But I certainly always TRY to stay at ISO 100.
For example by seeking/creating enough light.
Or by creating enough stability to shoot at slower shutter speeds.
And I don't even mind the noise. - that's easy to get rid of in post.
What I hate is how the colors look at higher ISO's, and the lack of dynamic range.

I have a 350D and never go above ISO 400 due to noise
usually shoot at 200 or 400, rarely at 100
>>2699503
I use auto iso with a limit of 3200

You're just mentioning your Fuji because you've never shot full frame.
Also, Fuji ISO 6400 is really ISO 3200 on most other cameras, so keep that in mind.
(Saying this as a guy with both a Fujifilm camera and a Nikon FF DSLR)
I do most of my togging at night as such 100ISO is pretty much impossible. in rare circumstances I can run 100 in Bulb mode but only for rare still life stuff (even stars move too fast for that shit).
This was a 2-minute exposure and damned near underexposed with ISO 400.

Leave and never come back.

well sheesh i wouldn't have expect this shoddy treatment from fellow toggers
>>2699692
:D :D :D wuddafugg are u toggin bout XD XD
>>2699697
i'm toggin'bout how i tog about
I didn't buy a D750 to shoot at ISO 100.
100 is ideal, I leave it on 800 usually, and I work up to 6400 as needed.
Post processing NR tools are very strong.

why ƒ8 specifically? is that the point where diffraction starts to become a problem? i have hard time choosing my apitcha setting... it's always like the lowest possible or ƒ11.
If it's bright out, I try to keep it as low as possible, but will raise ISO well before I will move from f/8.
>The quality difference between f/8 and f/4 is massive compared to ISO 100 to ISO 640.
On dim days, I stay at max aperture and crank ISO as needed. I have no problem going right up to 6400 at the end of the day.
>It's that or go home
The only time I really worry about ISO is if I'm shooting a very small or distant animal that takes up a small percentage of the sensor; too much noise can eat up too much of its appearance.

Sorry, I changed my post for clarity.
For me, it's just because it is the best balance of sharpness, speed, and DOF for wildlife with 600mm.
Any slower and I can't get action shots, and much faster and I risk missing focus in certain situations (bird flying fast head-on, or shooting down the length of a moose's face)
If I'm shooting something side-on or over 100 feet away though, f/4 is great. I shot a fox hunting for voles in the snow last year, and stayed at f/4 and ISO 100 the entire time.
I used to have that attitude. Then I saw my friend doing it with a 400D in the evening and going into a ragefit when he was having trouble taking photos.
I print my work every now and then but it never goes larger than 12x12. I have autism, but I really worry for my friend. He seems to think that everyone of his shots needs to be as clean as a studio shot pic.

Why did you buy a Nikon?
>>2699726
this, I'd prioritize aperture long before iso. I see your point OP, but you should test out your camera and see where your ISO limits are, I assure you even an older DSLR can go to at least 800 before you hit problems, and I think even then you'll hit noise problems before you hit color problems.
