In my experience, using higher ISO in daylight, even when a bit dull is
more successful. The shorter exposure keeps the noise interference to a
minimum, so for example, if you take a 3200 ISO shot in a dark room the
noise will be horrible, but if you shoot in bright sunshine the image will
look almost unaffected by noise. I think it has to do with exposure time.
So you do not risk as much when you use it to increase shutter speed in
brighter conditions.
