OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

IMPORTANT!

Note that BEST SHOT mode settings take priority over mode memory settings. If you turn the camera off while in the BEST SHOT mode, all settings except for “Zoom Position” will be configured according to the BEST SHOT sample scene when you turn it back on again, regardless of mode memory on/off settings.

Specifying ISO Sensitivity

You can change the ISO sensitivity setting for better images in places where lighting is dim or when you are using faster shutter speeds.

ISO sensitivity is expressed in terms of values that originally indicated the sensitivity to light for photographic film. A larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is better for recording when available lighting is dim.
