Value
The ISO sensitivity is fi xed to the
selected value.
Abbreviation for the International Organization for
Standardization. ISO standards specify the sensitivity
for digital cameras and fi lm, thus codes such as “ISO
100” are used to represent sensitivity.
In the ISO setting, although smaller values result in
less sensitivity, sharp images can be taken under fully
lit conditions. Larger values result in higher sensitivity,
and images can be taken at fast shutter speeds even
under low light conditions. However, high sensitivity
introduces noise into the resulting picture, which may
give it a grainy appearance.
