Changing the sensitivity setting
([

Use this menu to specify required sensitivity setting of the
ambient light around the subject.
The larger value of the sensitivity, the higher sensitivity is
obtained. The higher sensitivity settings will allow you to
take pictures in darker locations.

• Settings
[AUTO]/[AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/
[AUTO(400)]/[12800]/[6400]/[3200]/[1600]/[800]/[400]/
[200]/[100]
Selecting [AUTO]/[AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/
[AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)] as the sensitivity setting, the
camera selects the best sensitivity setting for the
subject’s brightness.
• About [AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/
[AUTO(400)]
[AUTO(3200)]/[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/
[AUTO(400)] can be selected when the Shooting mode
is set to
B
or
s
. For [AUTO(3200)]/
[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)], sensitivity is
automatically set in the same way as for [AUTO], but
the highest sensitivity is limited. Select [AUTO(3200)]/
[AUTO(1600)]/[AUTO(800)]/[AUTO(400)] depending
on the scene.
MEMO
• Although higher sensitivity settings will allow you to take
pictures in darker locations, they will also increase the
amount of speckling in your images. Choose the
sensitivity setting that best suits the conditions.
• Sensitivity is retained even when the camera is turned
off or the mode setting is changed.
