| Hey everyone, I have a question. I went to a rodeo last night and am going back tonight. Normally, I shoot at an ISO of 400-ish, but I could not get a fast enough shutter speed to keep up w/ the riders. So, I bumped up the ISO to 1600. Will this affect the photo at all? Even still, I cant get the shutter speed I want. Is it OK to go up even further in the ISO? Thanks for taking the time to read this, and thanks for your help!! |

going up 1 in ISO will give you one more stop of light (for aperture or shutter speed).
So ISO 400 may give you 1/60 at f2.8
ISO 800 will give you 1/125 at f2.8
ISO 1600 will give you 1/250 at f2.8.
However, you will get more noise at the higher iso settings. Neatimage or other noise reduction programs will help remove the noise, but often leave the image looking 'plasticy' and fake.

Generally speaking, when you increase ISO, you also increase the amount of noise in the picture. My Nikon seems to be pretty clean at ISO 1600, but don't know about your Kodak. I looked up your camera on DPREVIEW.COM, and it shows ISO max of 800. Do you have a 1600 setting? How can you bump it higher?

| Sorry forgot to mention, I am not using my Kodak for right now. I am using my 35mm Canon EOS Rebel X, only because it is much better than my Kodak. Haven't got the money to buy a DSLR yet... |

Oh, FILM!
Well, if you move the ISO beyond the film's rated speed then you HAVE to tell the lab what ISO you shot it at because it requires a different developing reoutine or else you will not get pictures. If you shot the roll at several different ISO settings, you will NOT get all your pics.
The difference i think is the amount of time in the developer solution. back in college we pushed film all the time (b&w) for BB games, and got good pics, but never mixed ISO settings on a roll.

This is called push processing. However, with film, it's an all or nothing process. The entire roll has to be processed the same way.
Before you start decide what ISO you want to shoot at and set it. When you get the film processed tell the lab to push process at the ISO setting you used. You probably don't want to take it to Wal-Mart as they may not understand what you're talking about.
