(increased digital noise)

•Higher ISO sensitivity values tend to result in digital noise in images.

•Since higher ISO sensitivity values tend to result in digital noise in images, the camera performs a noise filtering process. Because of this, it may take relatively longer for the camera to finish recording an image after it is shot. You will not be able to perform any operation while image recording is in progress.
