Inspiration and new-and-improved technology aside, we’re serving up some tried and true best practices to get that perfect low light shot.

Exactly how far you can push your ISO will depend on which camera you’re using, but in general, if you have a full frame camera, you can push it up to around 3200 ISO without your image being super super noisy. Some cameras, like the Sony A7s can go further. With a cropped sensor, you can usually push it up to about 1600 ISO. If you bump your ISO to these respective settings and you still can’t get a good image, you call always go higher, but your image will become more noisy. There’s no formula to it, so experiment a little! Go out at night and shoot video with different high ISOs to see the difference. More Video School lessons
