Sensitivity (ISO) in digital imaging seems to be the subject of quite a lot of confusion - it's becoming common to hear talk of manufacturers 'cheating with ISO.' So we thought it made sense look at why sensitivity appears hard to pin down, why we use the definition we do and how it's actually not as complicated as it can sometimes seem.

These are also interesting articles:

I guarantee that the OP hasn't read these articles (or else failed to understand them).

I think a number of other posters in this thread would be well-served by reading them, as well. Although I was already familiar with the topic, these articles, especially the last two, were still worth reading. Well written and illustrated.

Thanks for sharing them.
