Applicable mode: C/N

The ISO setting corresponds to the ISO value of conventional film and indicates sensitivity to light.

The ISO can be set to AUTO, 100, 200, 400 or 800, with the image quality deteriorating as the number increases. Increasing the camera’s sensitivity to light allows you to take pictures in dark locations or use fast shutter speeds. It also slightly increases the effective range of the flash.
