That was my point. And it makes no difference if you prefer to work with DIN, ASA or ISO, it's all related and basically the same thing.







And that wasn't my point. My point is that understanding your point has NO practical impact on almost everybody's every-day photography, be it digital or on film. I do not need to know how ISO settings are defined or achieved for digital devices to make good use of them.

My point was (and is) that it is nonsense to say a 17mm f0.95 lens on MFT enables faster exposure times. It does not, as the signal can be amplified variably, to such an extent that you get similar exposure times.



And any argument against that, saying that both have to be at the same ISO setting, is nonsense, as ISO is NOT about the sensitivity of the sensor (it used to be about sensitivity, with film. Not so anymore with digital.).



That is my point. Treating the ISO setting number as something meaningful with digital is silly.
