ISO Sensitivity

The camera’s sensitivity to light can be adjusted according to the amount of light available. Choose from settings that range from ISO 100 to ISO 25600 in steps equivalent to 1/3 EV. Auto, scene, and special effect modes also offer an AUTO option, which allows the camera to set ISO sensitivity automatically in response to lighting conditions. Settings of Hi BW1 (equivalent to ISO 51200) and Hi BW2 (equivalent to ISO 102400) are also available, but note that pictures taken with either setting are recorded in monochrome using the options selected for Set Picture Control > Monochrome in the photo shooting menu (0 130). The higher the ISO sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure, allowing higher shutter speeds or smaller apertures.
