[p-MODE MENU] (Photography)

Setting the menu (➝p.63)

Changing the sensitivity setting ([SISO])

Use this menu to specify required sensitivity setting of the ambient light around the subject.

The larger value of the sensitivity, the higher sensitivity is obtained. The higher sensitivity settings will allow you to take pictures in darker locations.

CHECK

•Settings [AUTO]/[AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/ [AUTO(400)]/[12800]/[6400]/[3200]/[1600]/[800]/[400]/ [200]/[100]

Selecting [AUTO]/[AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/ [AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)] as the sensitivity setting, the camera selects the best sensitivity setting for the subject’s brightness.

The selected sensitivity

ISO100 setting appears on the LCD monitor when the

sensitivity setting is set to another setting excluding [AUTO].

•About [AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/ [AUTO(400)] [AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/

[AUTO(400)] can be selected when the Shooting mode is set to Bor s. For [AUTO(3200)]/ [AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)], sensitivity is automatically set in the same way as for [AUTO], but the highest sensitivity is limited. Select [AUTO(3200)]/ [AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)] depending on the scene.

MEMO

•Although higher sensitivity settings will allow you to take pictures in darker locations, they will also increase the amount of speckling in your images. Choose the sensitivity setting that best suits the conditions.

•Sensitivity is retained even when the camera is turned off or the mode setting is changed.
