edit Steps

  1. 1
    Check what ISO values you can use on your digital camera. It's good to know what values you are available to use.
  2. 2
    Note if it is daytime, or nighttime. If it is the daytime, and you should use a lower ISO value (80-200). This makes the picture darker, so that it does not become almost pure white. If it is nighttime use a higher ISO value (800-3200). This makes the camera snap the image quicker, eliminating most blur.
  3. 3
    If you are using a tripod, any value is good for nighttime. If you want a picture to be brighter, use a lower value.
