Sensitivity
“Sensitivity” refers to the camera’s sensitivity to light. Choose from values between 200 and 6400, or
select L (100), H (12800), or H (25600) for special situations. Higher values can be used to reduce
blur when lighting is poor, while lower values allow slower shutter speeds or wider apertures in bright
light; note, however, that mottling may appear in pictures taken at high sensitivities, particularly at
H (25600), while choosing L (100) reduces dynamic range. Values of from ISO 200 to ISO 6400 are
recommended in most situations. If an AUTO option is selected, the camera will adjust sensitivity
automatically in response to shooting conditions; the value in parentheses is the maximum sensitivity
that will be selected when the subject is poorly lit.
