    turning the camera into portrait mode

    do you mean turning the camera so that the format is higher than wide, or some camera setting? If you mean camera settings, I’ll stop you right there, the only settings I have are aperture and shutter speed :)

      Yes, exactly.

      only settings I have are aperture and shutter speed :)

      I suspect there’s an ISO setting of some sort :) If it’s a digital camera ISO relates to a gain setting on the sensor. If it’s a film camera, well, ISO relates to the speed of the film.

        Yes, ISO is there too, but my SOTDs in particular are still photography with artificial lighting and a tripod.

        I get the lowest noise at ISO 200, and now it’s not a variable anymore (in this setup). Only aperture for controlling depth of field, shutter speed for exposure.

        If I want grainy pictures, rather than cranking up the ISO, I do it in post.

          Ah. Yes. I was thinking more about photos in general. The modern AI denoise tools are amazing, btw, but I had to put the GIMP in the rearview to play with them.

            Also filling in background with AI tools feels crazy
