This allows the sensitivity to light (ISO sensitivity) to be set. Setting to a
higher number enables pictures to be taken even in dark places without
the resulting pictures coming out dark.
The displayed ISO display value is the standard output sensitivity.
The higher the ISO sensitivity, the greater the capability of the unit to
record with fast shutter speeds and in dark environments. However, a
higher sensitivity may also mean more noise in the recorded image
and a more grainy image.
[SCENE MODE] will be set to (OFF) when the [ISO] is set to other
than AUTO while the [SCENE MODE] (l 66) is set to
(FIREWORKS), (HDR Backlight Comp.), or (LOW
LIGHT).
If you register a shortcut function (l 77) to the SET button, you can
change the ISO sensitivity setting from the recording screen.
Please refer to page 83.
