BNote on BSS

BSS is effective when taking pictures of still subjects. BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject moves or the composition changes while the shutter-release button is held down.

BNote on Multi-shot 16

Smear (A148) visible in the monitor when shooting with Multi-shot 16 enabled will be recorded with images. Avoiding bright objects such as the sun, reflections of the sun, and electric lights when shooting with Multi-shot 16 enabled is recommended.

BNote on Sport Continuous

As high ISO sensitivity settings are applied, pictures may appear mottled. Accurate exposure may not be achieved (images may be over-exposed) with pictures taken on bright sunny days.

EISO Sensitivity

A(auto) Md(Shooting menu) MEISO sensitivity

Sensitivity is a measure of the camera’s response to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light is needed to expose an image. Although high ISO sensitivity settings are suited to pictures of moving subjects or those taken under dim lighting, high sensitivity settings are often associated with “noise” - randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels - concentrated in dark portions of the image.

Auto (default setting)

Sensitivity is ISO 100 when there is sufficient lighting; the camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 1600 when lighting is dim.

Fixed range auto

Choose the range in which the camera automatically adjusts ISO sensitivity, from ISO 100-400or ISO 100-800. The camera will not increase sensitivity beyond the maximum value in the selected range. Set the maximum value for ISO sensitivity for effective control over the amount of “grain” that appears in images.

100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200

Sensitivity is locked at the specified value.

At the settings other than Auto, the current setting is displayed in the monitor

(A6). If Auto is selected and the sensitivity is raised above ISO 100, the Eicon will be displayed (A31). When Fixed range auto is selected, Uand the maximum value for ISO sensitivity is displayed.
