ISO Sensitivity
I_1(auto)-) MENU -_ ISO
(Shooting menu) sensitivity
When ISOsensitivity isincreased, less light is needed when taking pictures.
Higher ISOsensitivity allows darker subjects to be captured. Additionally, even
with subjects of similar brig htness, pictures can be taken at faster shutter speeds,
and blurring caused by camera shake and subject movement can be reduced.
• Although higher ISOsensitivity is effective when shooting darker subjects,
shooting without the flash, shooting with the camera zoomed in,etc., images
may contain noise.
