High-sensitivity photography (800 or 1600)
When a high sensitivity (800 or 1600) is set,
“&” or “*” appears on the LCD monitor
and the resolution is automatically set to “1”.
This mode can be selected in the “
W
” photography
mode.
Use this setting when you want to take bright
pictures indoors without using a flash or when
you want to use a fast shutter speed (to prevent
camera shake, etc.).
hSettings: 200 (standard), 400, 800, 1600

!
While selecting a higher sensitivity setting will allow
you to take pictures in darker locations, it will also
increase the amount of speckling in your images.
Streaking may also be visible in shots of scenes
such as the night sky.
Choose the sensitivity setting that best suits the
conditions.

When you specify a high sensitivity, the amount of
noise (interference) in the image shown on the LCD
monitor before the shot is taken increases. However,
this is normal and does not indicate a fault.
