I can change the ISO at any time during my shoot but when the camera is powered off/on the default of 100 ISO is always selected. This default can be set to any ISO value. Isn't this feature available on other brand cameras? I use a Pentax K7 and have set the default ISO to 100.

Is there a reason for this? I do find when travelling that it is easy to forget to change things, or sometimes you have to take a shot quickly....with not a lot of time to adjust the camera. Is there a problem with leaving the ISO setting on automatic? I do want good quality photos which go on my websites and am hoping to look at Stock photos although I have a G9 Canon not a full DSLR.

I can't tell how many times I have read about ISO, Aperture, shutter and couldn't grasp, now I just discovered your site from flickr yesterday and getting together in my head what its all means.

What a difference, wow. I'm trying to figure out why my new Canon Powershot Elph 100 HS sucks.The pics look gorgeous on the LCD but then on the computer they're so grainy. I'm guessing it's ISO, so I'll try experimenting. Now, if only I could figure out why they insist on making the d*mned LCD extra contrasty, extra vivid/saturated, so that I'm basically "shooting blind" because I have no idea what my photos will look like. Also, dunno why it's (when I put them on the computer) adding all these reddish tones to everything. It totally ruins all my pictures! I guess ISO can't explain that? Very frustrated person here, but this ISO info helped, at least. The picture says it all! What a difference, wow.
