40 hp photosmart 730 series user’s manual
If the setting is anything other than the default setting of Auto,
the icon for the setting (in the table above) will appear at the
top of the Live View screen.
The new setting remains in effect until it is changed again or
until the camera is turned off.
ISO speed
The ISO Speed setting adjusts the sensitivity of the camera to
light. The Auto setting works the best.
NOTE If the camera is in Action, Landscape, Portrait, F2.6 or
F4.9 mode, the ISO speed will always be set to Auto and
the ISO option in the Capture menu will be grayed out.
Lower ISO speeds will capture the best quality pictures with the
least amount of noise or grain. If taking a picture in low light
conditions without a flash at ISO 100, you may want to use a
tripod.
Higher ISO speeds allow higher shutter speeds and thus can
be used when taking pictures in dark areas without a flash, or
when taking pictures of fast moving objects and you want to
stop action. Higher ISO speeds produce pictures with more
grain and thus lower quality.
Shade Camera balances color assuming it is
outdoors in shade, twilight, or dark cloudy
conditions.
Tungsten Camera balances color assuming
incandescent or halogen lighting (typically
found in homes).
Fluorescent Camera balances color assuming
fluorescent lighting.
