or setting [COL.MODE] to [NATURAL]. (P65)

You cannot use the following functions.

[D.ZOOM]

[SLOW SHUTTER]

[SENSITIVITY]

Setting the light sensitivity

Press [ MENU/SET ] to display the [REC] mode menu and select the item to set. (P55) ISO is a measure of sensitivity to light. The higher the sensitivity is set, the less light is needed to take a picture so the camera becomes more suitable for recording in dark places.

When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted to a maximum of [ISO200] according to the brightness. (It can be adjusted to a maximum of [ISO1000] when using the flash.)

To avoid picture noise, we recommend decreasing maximum ISO sensitivity level or setting [COL.MODE] to [NATURAL]. (P65)

The sensitivity automatically switches to between [ISO1600] and [ISO6400] in [HIGH SENS.] in scene mode.

The setting is not available when [INTELLIGENT ISO] is being used.

([ ] is displayed.)

[ASPECT RATIO]

Setting the aspect ratio of pictures

Press [ MENU/SET ] to display the [REC] mode menu and select the item to set. (P55) By changing the aspect ratio, you can select an angle of view that matches the subject.

This is suitable for landscapes etc. where a wide view is preferable. This is also suitable for playing back pictures on a wide-screen TV, high-definition TV etc.

In motion picture mode [], you cannot

select [ ].
