Note that the default sensitivity of the CCD sensor is ISO 50.
Higher ISO settings result in progressively noisier images (just
as higher ISO film becomes grainer). It is recommended that
you use the lowest ISO setting the lighting situation allows.
ISO
The digital back can be set to use a light-sensitivity rating equivalent
to ISO 50, 100, 200 or 400 film. Note, however, that the “natural”
sensitivity of the CCD is ISO 50, so you will get best results with
this setting if the light conditions allow.
To set the ISO:
1. Choose MAIN MENU > ISO . This is the top item of the top
menu, so it will be selected by default when you enter the
menu system. (See also
Navigating the Menu System
for
details about how to find this setting.)
2. Use the or button to step through the available ISO
settings until the setting you want is shown.
3. Either move on to another setting by using the navigator but-
ton or press the menu button to exit the menu system and
keep your setting.

settings should be
checked before each session. They are therefore placed at the top
level of the menu for quick and easy access. They are also shown
on-screen in most preview modes, so you can easily keep an eye
on them as your work.
Note also that the menu and approval buttons are situated just
outside the bottom-left and bottom-right corners of the screen.
As you work through the various menu entries, the screen shows
a label for each of these buttons. In the text, we therefore give the
generic name for the button and the screen name. For example we
will refer to: the menu ( MENU ) button, the menu ( EXIT ) button,
or the approval (
OK
) button.
As a practical example, a MAIN MENU > SETTINGS > USER
INTERFACE > Language
item instruction would involve the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Press the menu ( MENU ) button to open the menu.
2. Use

and

to select the SETTINGS sub-menu.
3. Press

to open the SETTINGS menu.
4. Press  to select the

sub-menu.
5. Press either the or button to choose a new language
(in this case Spanish).
6. Press the MENU/EXIT button again to close the menu.
