Shooting Situation
(No flash)
Flash Range

The higher the ISO
speed, the farther the
flash range will be (p.64).
400 - 1600 Overcast skies or evening time
1600 - 6400, H Dark indoors or night
In the [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menu, if [Highlight tone priority]
is set to [1: Enable], ISO 100 and “H” (equivalent to ISO 12800) settings
cannot be set (p.194).
Using a high ISO speed or shooting in high-temperature conditions may
result in more grainy images. Long exposures can also cause irregular
colors in the image.
When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (banding, dots of light, etc.)
may appear.
In the [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menu, if [ISO expansion] is set to [1:
On], “H” (equivalent to ISO 12800) can also be set (p.192).
