Characteristics of the ISO Sensitivity

By increasing the ISO sensitivity, the shutter speed can be increased in dark places to prevent camera shake and subject blur. However, higher ISO sensitivities also increase the amount of noise in the recorded images.

[AUTO]

The ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted according to the brightness.
