ADVANCED SETTINGS
ISO sensitivity is a value that expresses sensitivity to light. A
larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is better for
shooting when available lighting is dim. If you want to use faster
shutter speeds, you should use a higher ISO sensitivity value.
Under certain conditions, a fast shutter speed in combination
with a high ISO sensitivity setting can cause digital noise, which
makes an image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images,
use the lowest possible ISO sensitivity setting.
