The ISO standardized method is the first thing that is abandoned by
advanced photographers. This is why people do film speed tests.
The ISO standard presumes a certain scene type which bears only passing
relevence to the real world. The ISO rating is just a reference standard
so that everyone can be on the same page WRT film and meter sensitivity.
There is nothing in the ISO rating to imply that it is the gospel for
how the product will work in the real world.
