I know sharpness has many factors such as lenses, sensor, resolution. I also know that A smaller ISO setting has less noise than a higher setting so a smaller ISO in theory gives apparent sharper images than a higher ISO value. Lets say if we were to narrow it down to a controlled environmental setting. Lighting is perfect, and lets fix the F-stop to the same setting, and its sweet spot.
Our camera is on the tri-pod; We are in focus, depth of field, white balance, everything is set . The only thing we need to change is the ISO, and Shutter speed which can compensate to our perfect lighting and no compromise with F-stop is needed.
My question is does ISO really effect overall image sharpness?
Before posting this I read many things, and previewed tons of photos on flicker and compared there specs. Does ISO matter in terms of sharpness with the controlled. Obviously ISO 1600+ will look very noisy. So lets stay around ISO 100 or less - 800.
I typically like ISO 100 (in good lighting, and compensate the shutter) since its the least noisy on my camera, but will bumping it up (causing more noise) effect its sharpness? I read that ISO noise does not effect sharpness that a sharp picture is a sharp picture, and its (not literally since its cause by technical things) almost like noise (grain) added over a picture.
