Exercise 7: Your Tolerance for Noise

I have taken a series of photos showing the whole ISO settings on my camera. The range of ISO settings are from 100-6400. I took 17 photos covering the whole range of ISO setting on my camera. I am not going to put all 17 photos on my blog, Because it would be too many.

Photo 1

ISO 100

There was no visible signs of noise at this point. Which you wouldn't expect there to be, at such a low ISO setting.

Photo 2

ISO 400

Noise started around ISO 400 setting. it looks alright in narmal view, but when I zoomed in it was quite noticable in the highlights and shadows.

Photo 3

ISO 800

I don't think there is alot of difference between IOS 400 and ISO 800. my camera seem to handle noise at these setting quite well.

Photo 4

ISO 1000

Photo 5

ISO 2000

Photo 6

The noise become visible at tha point in normal view.

Photo 7

This is the top end of the ISO setting for my camera. The noise is quite visiable now in normal view.
