	ISO Sensitivity [SENSITIVITY]							Picture Size [PICT.SIZE]

ISO sensitivity represents the sensitivity to light in values. If you set the ISO sensitivity higher, the camera becomes more suitable for recording in dark places.

•When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted in the range described below according to the brightness.

DMC-FX7: [ISO80] – [ISO200]

DMC-FX2: [ISO64] – [ISO200]

(It can be adjusted from [ISO100] to [ISO400] when using the flash. However, it is fixed to [ISO100] when the flash mode is set to Slow sync./Red-eye reduction

[ ].)

•In simple mode [], motion image mode [ ] or scene mode [] (P51), ISO sensitivity is fixed to [AUTO].

•To avoid picture noise, we recommend decreasing the ISO sensitivity or setting [PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. (P65)

If you select a larger picture size, you can print pictures clearly.

When you select a smaller picture size (640k480 pixels), you can store more pictures on a card though the picture quality is deteriorated. In addition, it is efficient to attach the picture to an e-mail or post it on a web site because the file size is small.
