SETTING THE ISO SENSITIVITY

With the normal settings, the ISO sensitivity is set automatically according to the brightness of the

subject. However, in the special mode, you can fix the ISO sensitivity to the equivalent of 100,

200, or 400.

Display the Shooting Setting Screen (see page 31).

Select an ISO sensitivity setting from the ISO

sensitivity menu, and press the SET button.

B: Sets the ISO sensitivity automatically (equivalent to

ISO100 to 400).

+: Sets the sensitivity equivalent to ISO100.

1: Sets the sensitivity equivalent to ISO200 (twice the

sensitivity of +).

%: Sets the sensitivity equivalent to ISO400 (four times

the sensitivity of +).

œ This completes the ISO sensitivity setting.

NOTE

œ By setting a higher ISO sensitivity, you can set higher shutter speeds and capture images in

darker locations, but noise in the captured images may increase.

œ If the flicker reduction is set to k (see page 87) in the video clip shooting mode, then the ISO

sensitivity setting is fixed to B.
