2. Use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons to select the desired ISO sensitivity value.

-AUTO : The camera's sensitivity is automatically changed by variables

such as lighting value or subject brightness.

-50, 100, 200, 400 : You can increase the shutter speed while the same amount of light is present, by increasing the ISO sensitivity. However, the image may be saturated in high luminance.
