The 'HS' camera suffix stands for High Sensitivity, with, aided and  abetted by the sensor being of the backside-illuminated variety, while  the ISO range top out at a maximum ISO3200. We also get a built-in flash  as back up, though the window for it is very narrow and it has been  placed at the top right hand corner of the faceplate, where fingers can  inevitably stray in front. The mirrored lens surround is an attractive  touch, and you can just about see your face in it if attempting self  portraits.
