Candle light photography camera settings

In candlelight photography, you want to keep the warm, orangish glow produced by the flames. So set your camera to a low-light mode in the white balance settings. If your camera offers a custom entry, put in around 2000-3000K (Kelvin, the scale of color temperature).

What ISO might you choose for an image shot by candlelight with a handheld camera?

Candlelight

A typical application for the candlelight mode, which set the camera's ISO to 400 and selected a shutter speed of /130 second at f/4 for the 40mm lens used for the shot.

What white balance for candle light?

Candlelight: 1900. Incandescent light: 2700. Sunrise/golden hour: 2800 to 3000.

What is the best ISO setting for low light?

A high ISO value (e.g. 800, 1600 or higher) means a high sensitivity to light. This helps in low-light situations where you need the camera to capture more light for a better-exposed image.
