ISO Sensitivity [SENSITIVITY]

ISO sensitivity represents the sensitivity to light in values. If you set the ISO sensitivity higher, the camera becomes more suitable for recording in dark places.

When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted from [ISO64] to [ISO200] according to the brightness. (It can be adjusted from [ISO100] to [ISO400] when using the flash.)
