Changing ISO sensitivity (ISO)
The higher the ISO, the better the camera’s light sensitivity and ability to
shoot in low light conditions. However, high sensitivity introduces noise
into the resulting picture, which may give it a grainy appearance.

In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that the
camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually. You can adjust the
exposure in the range of ±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. When the exposure is
changed, you can check the result on the monitor.
