Taking Photographs

●Reducing Noise and Blur: Auto ISO Sensitivity Control When On is selected for ISO sensitivity

settings > Auto ISO sensitivity control in the shooting menu, the camera au- tomatically adjusts ISO sensitivity if op- timal exposure can not be achieved at the value selected by the user.

Auto ISO sensitivity control can be fine- tuned using the following options.

•Maximum sensitivity: Choose the maxi- mum value available for auto ISO sen- sitivity control (200–Hi 4). The mini- mum is ISO 100.

•Minimum shutter speed: In exposure modes eand g, sensitiv- ity will only be adjusted if shutter speed would otherwise be slower than this value (¼,000–1 s or Auto). If Auto is selected, the camera will adjust the threshold for auto ISO sensitivity control according to the focal length of the lens.

Tips

We recommend that you use matrix metering (L) and choose exposure mode e or g. Exposure compensation can be used.
