[06/11/2010] Look for ISO 50 Support
ISO is a term that was used to indicate the speed of the negative material used and even though the digital cameras do not use films, they also have an ISO setting, which is actually not a real ISO, but rather an equivalent. The ISO of most digital cameras starts form 100 and can go up to 1600, 3200, and even 6400. The lowest number shows the ability of the camera to take clear images in high light situations, and the higher ISO speed shows the ability of the camera to take good pictures in low light. If you take many outdoor or indoor pictures, where the light is intense, then a camera that supports ISO 50 is what you should look for. Such camera is likely to deliver images with less noise than a camera with minimal ISO 100, but since choosing this setting also means longer exposure, you might need a monopod, tripod, or other stabilizing equipment in order to take a photo that is not underexposed.
