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.

However, the noise level in the image will increase as the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse.
