[SENSITIVITY]

For details on [REC] Mode menu settings, refer to P27.

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

Applicable modes: [AUTO]/[80]/[100]/[200]/[400]/[800]/[1600]

Refer to P67 for the flash range.

When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted to a maximum of value set with [ISO LIMIT SET].

ISO sensitivity will adjust automatically depending on brightness within the maximum setting of [ISO400] ([ISO800] when the flash is used) when [AUTO] is selected for [ISO LIMIT SET].

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

If picture noise becomes a problem, we recommend that you take pictures after lowering the ISO sensitivity level, increasing the setting for [NOISE REDUCTION] under [PICT. ADJ.], or lowering the setting for each of the items other than [NOISE REDUCTION]. (P144)

[ISO LIMIT SET]

For details on [REC] Mode menu settings, refer to P27.

It will select optimal ISO sensitivity with set value as limit depending on the brightness of the subject.

Applicable modes: [AUTO]/[200]/[400]/[800]/[1600]

Note

Setting items below will be selectable in Creative Motion Picture Mode. [AUTO]/[800]/[1600]/[3200]/[6400]

The upper limit of the ISO sensitivity can be set.

The higher the value set for the ISO sensitivity, the more the jitter is reduced but the greater the amount of picture noise.

It will work when the [SENSITIVITY] is set to [AUTO] or [INTELLIGENT ISO] is set to [ON].
