Reference—ISO Sensitivity

ISO Sensitivity
“ISO sensitivity” is the digital equivalent of fi lm speed. The higher the ISO sensitiv-
ity, the less light needed to make an exposure, allowing higher shutter speeds or
smaller apertures.
ISO sensitivity can be set between values roughly equivalent to ISO 100 and ISO
1600 in steps equivalent to / EV. Where high sensitivity is a priority, ISO sensi-
tivity can be further increased up to 1 EV over ISO 1600. ISO sensitivity can be
adjusted using the ISO Sensitivity option in the shooting menu or by pressing
the ISO button and rotating the main command dial.
