Attention:
- Raising the [ISO Speed] increases the shutter speed and allows the flash to reach subjects at far distances. Therefore, it is possible to shoot images with less subject blur or camera shake even in dark places.
- However, the higher the [ISO Speed], the more the noise stands out (more uneven areas in an image).
- Lowering the ISO speed results in sharper images, but there may be an increased chance of image blurring in certain shooting conditions.
