ISO Sensitivity

A(auto) Md(Shooting menu) MISO sensitivity

When ISO sensitivity is increased, less light is needed when taking pictures. Higher ISO sensitivity allows darker subjects to be captured. Additionally, even with subjects of similar brightness, pictures can be taken at faster shutter speeds, and blurring caused by camera shake and subject movement can be reduced.

•Although higher ISO sensitivity is effective when shooting darker subjects, shooting without the flash, shooting with the camera zoomed in, etc., images may contain noise.

Auto (default setting)

Sensitivity is ISO 160 when there is sufficient lighting; the camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 800 when lighting is dim.

Fixed range auto

Limits the ISO sensitivity to ISO 160-400 when the camera automatically adjusts ISO sensitivity. The camera sets the maximum value for ISO sensitivity to 400 for effective control over the amount of “grain” that appears in images.
