	ISO Sensitivity [SENSITIVITY]							Picture Size [PICT.SIZE]

ISO sensitivity represents the sensitivity to light in values. If you set the ISO sensitivity higher, the camera becomes more suitable for recording in dark places.

•When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted from [ISO80] to [ISO200] according to the brightness. (It can be adjusted from [ISO100] to [ISO400] when using the flash. However, it is fixed to [ISO100] when the flash mode is set to Slow sync./

SCENERY] and [FIREWORKS] in scene mode, it is fixed to [ISO100], and in [PANNING], it is fixed to [ISO80].)

•You cannot select [AUTO] in Aperture-priority AE, Shutter-priority AE and Manual exposure mode.

When you select a smaller picture size (640k480 pixels), you can store more pictures on a card. In addition, it is efficient to attach the picture to an e-mail or post it on a web site because the file size is small. If you select a larger picture size

(2016k1512 pixels), you can print pictures clearly.
