ISO

ISO AUTO

The sensitivity is set automatically based on the brightness.

ISO50 - ISO204800

Set your preferred sensitivity manually. Higher values provide greater sensitivity.

  • In dark environments, the shutter speed may be slower. Camera shake may occur, and subject blur may occur for fast-moving subjects. You can increase shutter speed by setting a higher ISO, which may alleviate these problems.
  • At higher ISO settings, image noise will increase.

Hint

Restricting the ISO range available when ISO is set manually
