About this photo

This photo was taken by on 2009:01:19 10:35:31.

The camera used by the author of this photo was Canon DIGITAL IXUS 90 IS by Canon, with a shutter speed of 1/400, a focal distance of 6200/1000 and an IOS of 80.

Image quaility

A shutter speed of 1/400 means the sensor was exposed for 0.0025 seconds. This is a low enough value to guaranty that the image is probably sharp, even if captured without a tripod or if it has moving objects in it.

An ISO of 80 means the lightning conditions this photo was taken under were probably quite good, most likely in the outdoors during the day or with the help of a tripod. A low ISO like this usually translates into a good image quality, without "noise" or other kind distortions.
