A week's rental costs less than three As a hobbyist photographer, I occasionally took pictures in a studio for a quarter. My needs were met by a setting of 3 nickels, but I was hoping for a bit more resolution from this camera (so that the detail of the face in a chest portrait would be equal to the "facial" one at 3 nickels), a higher ISO (sometimes I shoot in the evening without external light), and a larger ISO working range. ISO 3200 is now absolutely working, and ISO 6400 is conditionally working.
