Comparing Sensor SNR

We’ve seen how SNR curves can help us analyze digital camera IQ:

In this post we will use them to help us compare digital cameras, independently of format size. Continue reading Comparing Sensor SNR

Exposure and ISO

The in-camera ISO dial is a ballpark milkshake of an indicator to help choose parameters that will result in a ‘good’ perceived picture. Key ingredients to obtain a ‘good’ perceived picture are 1) ‘good’ Exposure and 2) ‘good’ in-camera or in-computer processing. It’s easier to think about them as independent processes and that comes naturally to you because you shoot raw in manual mode and you like to PP, right? Continue reading Exposure and ISO
