This allows the sensitivity to light (ISO sensitivity) to be set. Setting to a higher number
enables pictures to be taken even in dark places without the resulting pictures coming out
dark.

About [
] (Intelligent ISO sensitivity control)
The camera automatically sets the optimum ISO sensitivity and shutter speed to suit the
movement of the subject and brightness of the scene to minimize the jitter of the subject.
•
The shutter speed is not fixed when the shutter button is pressed halfway. It is continuously
changing to match the movement of the subject until the shutter button is pressed fully. Confirm
the actual shutter speed on the information display for the picture being played back.
Note
•
When setting to [AUTO], the ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted to a maximum of [ISO400]
according to the brightness. (It can be adjusted to a maximum of [ISO1600] when using the
flash.)
•
When setting to [
], ISO sensitivity will adjust automatically depending on brightness within
the maximum setting of [ISO1600].
•
The ISO sensitivity will be set to [AUTO] when recording motion pictures. Also,
[ISO LIMIT SET] will not work.
•
The higher the value set for the ISO sensitivity, the more the jitter is reduced but the greater the
amount of picture noise.
•
Refer to
P59
for the flash range.
•
Depending on the brightness and how fast the subject is moving, jitter may not be avoided even
if [
] is selected.
•
Movements may not be detected when a moving subject is small, when a moving subject is at
the edge of the screen or when a subject has moved at the very moment when the shutter
button was pressed fully.
•
The setting is fixed to [
] in the following cases.
–
In [SPORTS], [BABY1]/[BABY2], [PET] and [FLASH BURST] in Scene Mode
•
To avoid picture noise, we recommend that you either reduce the ISO sensitivity level or set
[COLOR MODE] to [NATURAL], and then take pictures.
