ISO 400 is one stop brighter than ISO 200 and that means it would take half as much time to record the same amount of light at the sensor.

What ISO should I use at night? For most full-frame cameras, ISO 3200 or 6400 are great for night photography. For most crop-sensor cameras, ISO 1600-3200 are great if it’s a relatively new camera, or ISO 1600 if it’s a much older camera.

What is the rule of thumb in photography? Generally speaking, using the standard rule of thumb is to make the shutter speed equal to your focal length when hand-holding your camera.

And 1/250th of a second shutter speed, is twice the light (1 stop more than) 1/500th of a second, and half as much light as ISO 125.

How long does undeveloped 35mm last?
