ISO Speed Submenu
Note:
The option you set is active from shot-to-
shot; it resets to its default setting when you
cycle the power on the camera.
Use the ISO Speed submenu to set the ISO speed. Similar to film, slower ISO speeds require longer
exposures, but produce higher quality images. In contrast, faster ISO speeds allow for shorter
exposures, but produce noisier images. You can select from these setting options:
