Sensitivity Settings (ISO

SETTING)

The ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive to light the film is. A greater value means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for shooting an object in a dark place or moving fast and suppresses blurring. However, the images become rough.

A digital camera can automatically vary the sensitivity (AUTO). Usually use your camera in the AUTO mode.

The ISO sensitivity can be selected from among the following six settings: AUTO, ISO50, ISO100, ISO200, ISO400, and ISO800. In AUTO mode, the sensitivity is ISO160 with flash or ISO125 without flash. The ISO sensitivity can be set by using the ADJ. Button or using the Shooting Menu.

•By default, your camera is set to OFF.

•When shooting in a dark place without using the flash, raising the sensitivity enables you to give a subject more bright- ness.

•If you increase the ISO Sensitivity, it becomes possible to shoot under low light conditions, but your pictures may become grainy. The higher the ISO Sensitivity, the grainier your pictures are likely to become, so it is necessary to exercise caution.
