Increasing ISO, will increase the graininess in a photo. Soooo, if you have a picture taken with 2000 ISO, the bigger it is the more grain you will see.

The lower ISO value will give a clearer, sharper image depending on light sources. The better lighting you have, the lower you can go with ISO, but also depends on shutter speed and aperture size.

Hope this helps
Thank you for the reply.

I'm using a Kodak M893 IS. It does have an ISO setting and it looks like its easy to adjust. I will take my pixel setting back to 8.1 and try playing with the ISO like you recommended. I'll try to use natural light when ever possible.

Question: Do you think taking pics against my light colored carpet makes a difference? I read that digital camara's can have trouble with "whites".

Thanks again
