Getting back on topic for the OP, did we come to agreement that there is a \"native\" or \"base\" ISO for every Canon camera? If so, is it typically ISO 100?
RE: \"So, under favourable conditions, i.e. f-stop and aperture can be widely adjusted, movement not a factor, etc. etc. is there a \"BEST\" ISO to use for a particular camera? Or just use the lowest ISO setting for optimal results?\"
Given \"favorable conditions,\" did we come to agreement that the lowest ISO (e.g. 100) is the best sensitivity setting to provide the best IQ? (e.g. greatest dynamic range or lowest noise?)
Note: Aesthetics or artistic considerations are presumed to be non-sequiters to the OP\'s question; he seems to be mostly concerned with technical considerations only. This is not to say we can\'t include these considerations in the discussion, but they seem to deviate somewhat from the OP\'s original questions.
OP--given what you\'ve read in this thread, do you have any related or follow-up questions?
