Using the Menus: Shooting Mode
NISO
Control the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher values can be used to reduce blur when lighting is poor; note, however, that mottling may appear in pictures taken at high sensitivities, particularly at settings of 3200 and 6400. If AUTO, AUTO (1600), AUTO (800), or AUTO (400) is selected, the camera will adjust sensitivity automatically in response to shooting conditions. The maximum value that will be selected by the camera at settings of AUTO (1600), AUTO (800), or AUTO (400) is 1600, 800, or 400 respectively.
Settings of 100 – 6400 are available only in P and M modes, AUTO (400), AUTO (800), and AUTO (1600) only in P and S modes; at high shutter speeds, the only options available in S mode will be AUTO (3200) and AUTO (6400). AUTO is available in all modes except P, S, C, and M. At settings of 3200 and 6400, image quality (pg. 75) will automatically be lowered to 2or below; settings that have been altered from the value selected by the user are displayed in yellow. The previous image quality will be restored when another sensitivity is selected.
Settings other than AUTO are shown by an icon in the display. | M | N 9 |
