>[SENSITIVITY]

For details on [REC] mode menu settings, refer to P20.

This allows the sensitivity to light (ISO sensitivity) to be set. Setting to a higher number enables pictures to be taken even in dark places without the resulting pictures coming out dark.

Note

When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted to a maximum of [ISO400] according to the brightness. (It can be adjusted to a maximum of [ISO1000] when using the

flash.)

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

To avoid picture noise, we recommend that you either reduce the maximum ISO sensitivity level or set [COLOR MODE] to [NATURAL], and then take pictures. (P74)
