High ISO tip

I have found out that many photographers with digital cameras use the lowest ISO setting (100 or 200).

With some pocket camera this might be wise (they often have noise in the pictures at higher settings), but if you're using a digital SLR (those with exchangeable lenses) you should take some test photos to find the highest ISO (sensitivity) setting you can use without degrading the image.

With many cameras you can use 800 ISO, and this will greatly help you in getting sharp pictures, you can get a deeper depth-of-focus and shorter shutter speeds.
