Setting Exposure / ISO Setting for Day/Night
The default "Intelligent Auto" does not allow the camera to go to the highest ISO Setting.
Change the default shoot mode from "Program Auto" to either
"Shutter Priority", or "Aperture Priority"
in order to move the ISO setting to
409600
setting which is the camera’s most sensitive setting. See
Figure 34 above.
The camera controls take effect immediately when you select them. However, if you want the settings
to persist after power cycling, you need to hit the Save button.
Changing the Exposure Mode to Manual allows the shutter Speed to be manipulated.
