Setting your camera to ISO 100 will result in?
- A.
Course Pixelization
- B.
Medium Pixelization
- C.
Super Fine Pixelization
Correct Answer
C. Super Fine PixelizationExplanation
Setting your camera to ISO 100 will result in super fine pixelization. ISO refers to the sensitivity of the camera's image sensor to light. A lower ISO value, such as ISO 100, means that the sensor is less sensitive to light, resulting in less noise and finer details in the image. Therefore, setting the camera to ISO 100 will produce images with super fine pixelization, where the individual pixels are more defined and less grainy.Rate this question:
