Changing the Sensitivity Setting ( ISO)

ISO sensitivity is the digital equivalent of film speed. The higher the ISO sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure, allowing higher shutter speeds or smaller apertures.

ISO sensitivity can be set between values roughly equivalent to ISO 100 and ISO 3200 in steps equivalent to 1/3 EV.

MEMO

When high ISO sensitivity is used for shooting, and [D- RANGE] is set 130% or higher, S-Pixel will be used for the shooting. And the volume of the image data (including RAW image data) will be cut to approximately half. However you can still set the dynamic-range to up to 400% for use with applications.

ZSetting the ISO sensitivity using ISO and the main- command dial

While pressing ISO, rotate the main-command dial until the desired setting is displayed in the control panel or viewfinder.

CAUTION

Images shot in high-sensitivity photography may appear coarse and may also be affected by noise such as white dots.
