DedupeSituations where you may need to use a high ISO
Last Updated :ISO is an important aspect of digital photography to have an understanding of if you want to gain more control of your digital camera. Experiment with different settings and how they impact your images today – particularly learn more about Aperture and Shutter Speed which with ISO are a part of the Exposure Triangle. High ISO means high level of noise. And high noise in an image means more grainy looking picture with missing details. It eventually results in an image full of noise that is lacking sharpness and clarity. So select your ISO wisely and make sure it doesn't result in noise.
The ISO setting of your camera directly affects the noisiness in your pictures. A larger ISO allows you to use faster shutter speed and smaller aperture. The ideal ISO to use is 400 - 800 (it differs from situation to situation).
Let us find out such situations where you might need to use a higher ISO settings:
Indoor Sports Events
Sports event or any other activity where your subject is moving fast and there is very limited light to shoot. This is a situation where you may need a high ISO to compensate for low lighting condition.Concerts
Concerts are again a low or dim lighted zones, where you may need a high ISO to take a picture.Art Galleries, Churches etc.
Many Art Galleries these days do not allow using flash when you take a picture. And being indoors, there isn't enough light to capture the details. So, you may need a high ISO to do so. Same is the case with Churches, they are not well lit. Or the available light is dim and diffused.Birthday Parties
The best birthday shot is when the person blows out the candles in dark room. This is when you need a higher ISO to capture it. Using a flash will ruin it completely.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug!
Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
Jim Griffin It's AWESOME!! I have tens of thousands of pictures...and they are now successfully uploaded to SmugMug, where they are safely backed up, and I can edit and organize them. If you are hesitating about using PicBackMan, hesitate no longer...try it...and you'll be glad you did!!

I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.

I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.

PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary MerckensI have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen MartineauI was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
