Control the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher values can be used to reduce blur when lighting is
poor; note, however, that mottling may appear in pictures taken at high sensitivities, particularly at set-
tings of 3200 and 6400. If AUTO, AUTO (1600), AUTO (800), or AUTO (400) is selected, the camera
will adjust sensitivity automatically in response to shooting conditions. The maximum value that will
be selected by the camera at settings of AUTO (1600), AUTO (800), or AUTO (400) is 1600, 800, or
400 respectively.
Settings of 1006400 are available only in P and M modes, AUTO (400), AUTO (800), and AUTO
(1600) only in P and S modes; at burst mode settings of l and m (pg. 30), the only options available
in S mode will be AUTO (3200) and AUTO (6400). AUTO is available in all modes except P, S, C, and
M. At settings of 3200 and 6400, image quality (pg. 75) will automatically be lowered to 2 or below;
settings that have been altered from the value selected by the user are displayed in yellow. The previ-
ous image quality will be restored when another sensitivity is selected.
Settings other than AUTO are shown by an icon in the display.
1 Note
Sensitivity is not reset when the camera is turned o or another shooting mode is se-
