Auto ISO sensitivity control

  • At high ISO sensitivities, “noise” (randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines) may increase.
  • At high ISO sensitivities, the camera may have difficulty focusing.
  • The foregoing can be prevented by choosing a lower value for [ISO sensitivity settings] > [Maximum sensitivity].
