W Using ISO Sensitivity
ISO sensitivity is a measure of how sensitive the camera reacts to light. As the sensitivity is increased, the amount of light required for a certain exposure is decreased, allowing for faster shutter speeds. This is recommended when taking
pictures in places under low light or of moving subjects. However, “noise” in the
form of randomly-spaced, brightly-colored pixels may appear.
In P and A modes, ISO sensitivity can be selected from the following options:
