Photo Workshop Notes part 4.

Other things

ISO (old ASA rating with film) is the sensitivity setting and is usually automatic on compacts but can altered on CSC & SLR cameras giving more opportunities to shoot under poor lighting conditions, when shooting moving subjects or for more creative photography – change ISO to suit situation.

Can the photo be improved by using a different lens or accessories such as filters? (on CSC & SLR’s).

No matter how good the camera is or how many accessories there are, capturing a ‘good’ photo depends on the photographers ability to see and interpret what is being viewed before pressing the shutter button. No matter how good the kit some people just can’t take good photos! - The resulting image can be technically correct but may be poor from a creative viewpoint or just be badly composed /out of focus. 

Post capture image processing can rescue some photos but getting it right at the point of taking the photo is a better course of action.
