• Changing the ISO Speed
This function enables you to change the camera’s sensitivity to light by selecting
different ISO values. ISO is a measure of how quickly your camera reacts to
light. The higher the ISO value, the less light needed to make an exposure,
allowing the same exposure to be achieved with higher shutter speeds or smaller
apertures. In a digital camera, higher ISO value allows higher shutter speed, at
the expense of mottle or grain appearing in the final picture.

Increase in ISO value affects image quality with more noise. Use as low an
ISO value as possible.
