ISO What?
ISO is an algorithmic value that indicates a film stock’s sensitivity to light. Since dSLRs use a CCD or CMOS image sensor instead, the ISO on a digital camera is the equivalent in terms of light sensitivity. Digital camera makers decided there was no reason to define a new measurement system, so ISO was carried over to the digital realm.

Your dSLR camera shutter speed determines how long light reaches the image sensor to record an image. The shutter speed is typically measured in fractions of a second (e.g., 1/60, 1/125, 1/500 second) That’s lightning fast! But that’s all the camera needs to record an image.

Composition is the primary factor for successful photography, hands down. You have to be careful with a dSLR, because the automated features make it really easy to let the camera decide everything for you except for the composition. Allowing the camera to make all of the decisions can take the fun out of photography.

If you are new to the digital SLR (dSLR) world, one of the things that you‘ll notice is that you have complete control over how the camera exposes the image sensor. Your exposure is the one critical element to SLR photography (digital or film) that will make or break your photo. There are other aspects, like sharpness, but exposure is the key. There is no “correct” exposure, because you can and will want to be creative with how much light, or lack of light, you want on your subject. Your photographs will stand out once you’ve mastered this crucial skill.

You see it every time you look at an advertisement for a digital camera. The ad screams 8 MP or 10MP. It looks impressive. It’s persuasive. It’s important, isn’t it? Nope. As a matter of fact, many people don’t even know what it means. Many people understand what a 4 cylinder versus a 6 cylinder car means. They might even know what 145 versus 225 horsepower means. But megapixels? Not likely.
