ISO
The ISO menu allows you to set the level of
sensitivity that your camcorder has to light in the
surrounding environment. When the ISO level is
increased, the image sensor in your camcorder
will be more sensitive to light and allow you to
capture images in lower-light situations. The
higher sensitivity to light however, may reduce
the quality of the images that are taken.
When the ISO is reduced, the image sensor in
your camcorder will be less sensitive to light and
will optimize the image quality in environments
with bright lighting.
