ISO
This sets the sensitivity for capturing images. When the sensitivity is raised (and the ISO figure is increased), photography will become possible even in dark locations, but the more pixelated (grainier) the image will appear.
•Use a higher ISO setting in dim conditions and a lower ISO setting in brighter conditions.
