Specifying ISO Sensitivity
You can change the ISO sensitivity setting for better
images in places where lighting is dim or when you are
using faster shutter speeds.
ISO sensitivity is expressed in terms of values that
originally indicated the sensitivity to light for photographic
film. A larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is
better for recording when available lighting is dim.
1.
In a REC mode, press [MENU].
2.
Select the REC tab, select ISO, and then
press [̈].
3.
Use [̆] and [̄] to select the setting you want
and then press [SET].
IMPORTANT!
Under certain conditions, a high shutter speed in
combination with a high ISO sensitivity setting can
cause digital noise (graininess), which makes an
image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images,
use the lowest ISO sensitivity setting possible.
Using a high ISO sensitivity setting along with the
flash to shoot a nearby subject may result in
improper illumination of the subject.
NOTE
You can use key customization (page 140) to
configure the camera so the ISO sensitivity setting
changes whenever you press [̇] and [̈] while in a
REC mode.
