Set the ISO speed (image sensor’s sensitivity to light) to suit the
ambient light level. For example, when you increase the ISO speed
(higher number) for low light, a faster shutter speed can be used and
camera shake will be less prone to occur. The effective range of the
flash will also increase.
The ISO speed is set automatically within ISO 100 - 800.
ISO 100 - 1600 can be set in 1/3-stop increments. Also, the “Auto”
setting will change the ISO speed automatically to suit the ambient light
level.
