[SENSITIVITY]

Setting the light sensitivity

Press [ MENUSET ] to display the [REC] mode menu and select the item to set. (P59) ISO is a measure of sensitivity to light. The higher the sensitivity is set, the less light is needed to take a picture so the camera becomes more suitable for recording in dark places.

•When [AUTO] is selected, the ISO sensitivity automatically increases to a maximum of [ISO200] (or [ISO400] when the flash is activated) depending on the brightness.

•To avoid picture noise, we recommend decreasing the ISO sensitivity or setting [PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. (P65)

•ISO sensitivity cannot be set in scene

mode, motion picture mode [ ] and simple mode [].
