A ISO Sensitivity Settings
The settings available depend on the option selected for Custom Setting
b1 ([ISO sensitivity step value], pg. 314).
A Hi 0.3–Hi 2
The settings [Hi 0.3] through [Hi 2] correspond to ISO sensitivities 0.3–2 EV
over ISO 1600 (ISO 2000–6400 equivalent). Pictures taken at these
settings are more likely to be subject to noise and color distortion.
A Lo 0.3–Lo 1
The settings [Lo 0.3] through [Lo 1] correspond to ISO sensitivities 0.3–
1 EV below ISO 100 (ISO 80–50 equivalent).
Use for larger apertures when
lighting is bright. Contrast is slightly higher than normal; in most cases,
ISO sensitivities of ISO 100 or above are recommended.

* If possible, the current ISO sensitivity setting is maintained when the
step value is changed. If the current ISO sensitivity setting is not
available at the new step value, ISO sensitivity will be rounded up to the
nearest available setting.
