2Release the AF Mode Selector button and Metering Mode Selector/Flash Exposure Compensation button to complete the ISO setting.

In selecting an exposure setting, begin with lower exposure index settings; reserve the use of higher speeds for situations requiring their use. Higher speeds may result in lower-quality images than lower speeds. (You may notice noise in the image.) For this reason, as with film, you may want to use a flash and a lower ISO setting.
