B Note on Multi-shot 16
Smear (A143) visible in the monitor when shooting with Multi-shot 16 enabled will be recorded
with images. Avoiding bright objects such as the sun, reflections of the sun, and electric lights when
shooting with Multi-shot 16 enabled is recommended.
E ISO Sensitivity
Sensitivity is a measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the
sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. Although a high ISO rating
is suited for taking pictures of subjects in action or in poor lighting, high sensitivity
is often associated with “noise” -randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels
concentrated in dark parts of the image.
If ISO sensitivity is locked, Motion detection (A 126) will not function.
At settings other than Auto, the current setting is displayed in the monitor (A 6).
If Auto is selected and the sensitivity is raised above an ISO 100, the E icon will
be displayed (A 33). If Fixed range auto is selected, U + the maximum value
for ISO sensitivity will be displayed.

Auto (default setting)
Sensitivity is ISO 100 in bright places; in dark places the camera automatically raises
sensitivity to a maximum of ISO1600.
Fixed range auto
Choose the range in which the camera automatically adjusts ISO sensitivity, from
ISO 100-400 or ISO 100-800. The camera will not raise sensitivity beyond the
maximum value in the selected range. Set the maximum value for ISO sensitivity for
effective control over the amount of “grain” that appears in images.
100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400
ISO Sensitivity will be locked at the specified value.
