Raise the [ISO speed] to use a fast shutter speed when you wish to reduce the effects of camera shake or avoid blurry subjects, or to turn the flash off when shooting in a dark area.
Also, with [ISO AUTO] selected, you can set the maximum ISO speed, or select the rate of change.
REFERENCE
Set a higher ISO speed for higher sensitivity, or a lower value for lower sensitivity.
