ISO sensitivity (Cont.)
●
Higher ISO settings can produce more electrical noise.
●
ISO is standardized based on the sensitivity of normal camera film. The
scale is approximate.
●
When ISO is set to AUTO and you are shooting in dark conditions without a
flash, ISO automatically increases; otherwise the shutter speed will be
reduced, possibly resulting in blurred images due to camera movement.
●
If a subject is too far away for the flash illumination to reach it when the ISO
is set to AUTO, the ISO is automatically increased.
●
When using slow synchronization in the P, A or S mode, the slowest
available shutter speed varies depending on the ISO setting.
Note
Exposure compensation
This function allows you to make fine changes to the present exposure
setting. In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that
the camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually. You can adjust
b/–2.0 in 1/3 steps. When the setting is changed, you can check the
result on the monitor.
