Additional Shooting Options
Using ISO Sensitivity
ISO Sensitivity is a measure of how the camera’s sensor reacts to light. Setting
a high ISO will let you take pictures with smaller apertures under low lighting
conditions or make it easier to freeze action with faster shutter speeds. How-
ever, the higher the ISO, the more likely “noise” in the form of randomly-
spaced, brightly-colored pixels may appear.
ISO Sensitivity can be selected in M and E modes.
