FYI

That has absolutely nothing to do with my post.

While I generally like Mr. Northrop, I don’t think this video is very useful because he’s only demonstrating the noise that occurs when you boost brightness in post. It’s Stupid 101, because the real comparison is when you take two images which are exposed with the same lightness, using different ISO settings to obtain the same result. He didn’t even make one of those comparisons, so personally, I think he makes a useless explanation which does not help the photographer gain an understanding of how a higher ISO/lower exposure choice will impact the photograph, which is the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS here. Not “How does it work?” (Answer: I don’t care) but “How will it affect the photograph? (Answer: I need to know this!)
