Image quaility

A shutter speed of 1/60 means the sensor was exposed for 0.016666666666667 seconds. This is a low enough value to guaranty that the image is probably sharp, even if captured without a tripod or if it has moving objects in it.

AN ISO of 400 means the lightning conditions when this photo was taken were probably not ideal. This image might have some "noise", particulary if zoomed in to 100%.
