Adjusting ISO Sensitivity (Recommended Exposure Index)
ISO sensitivity is a speed rating for recording media that incorporates an image sensor that receives
light. Even when the exposure is the same, images differ depending on the ISO sensitivity.
High ISO sensitivity

However, the image tends to be noisy.
Low ISO sensitivity
Records a smoother image.
However, when the exposure is insufficient, the image may be darker.
