This is absolutely correct. In fact, if you are shooting in RAW, provided you don’t blow highlights it doesn’t really matter what ISO you or the camera chooses within reason. There is little to no difference between turning up the ISO in the camera or lifting the lightness of the shot in the RAW converter. What affects the noise is the exposure in the camera - minimising noise is served by maximising exposure (ie maximising aperture and exposure time) within the limits of the required depth of focus and avoiding motion blur. For a given exposure, the R5 and R6 are pretty much ISO invariant above ISO400.From that link. Generally speaking, you should keep your ISO as low as you can, to prevent ISO noise. What he says is not incorrect but there is more to it. It is always best to keep it down. You should read the responses. Particularly these ones.
High ISO doesn't cause noise
Noise becomes apparent as the result of insufficient exposure
What is the physical cause of increasing noise at high ISO?
Which is the physical cause of the increasing noise at high iso? I know that Iso represents the sensor/film sensitivity to light: at lower iso we need an higher exposure time to get the image of thephoto.stackexchange.com
I have seen other links articles about this but I couldn't find any. Appropriate shutter speeds and correct exposures are key.
