ISO

You can select the ISO sensitivity when taking pictures.

The speed or specific light-sensitivity of a camera is rated by ISO num- bers.

[Auto] : The camera's sensitivity is automati- cally changed by variables such as lighting value or subject brightness.

[ISO 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1000 ] :

the ISO sensitivity. However, the image may

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

be saturated in high luminance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The higher the ISO value, the higher the camera’s sensitivity to light and therefore the greater its capacity to take pictures in dark condi- tions. However, the noise level in the image will increase as the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse.

White balance

The white balance control allows you to adjust the colours to appear more natural.
