Shooting (Advanced operations)
Setting ISO
Sensitivity to light is expressed by the ISO number (recommended
exposure index). The larger the number, the higher the sensitivity.
Notes
• The recordable range of the brightness of a subject (dynamic range) is slightly
narrower for areas where ISO is less than 100.
• When the exposure mode is set to AUTO, AUTO+, Sweep Panorama, 3D Sweep
Panorama, or Scene Selection, ISO is fixed to [AUTO] and you cannot select other
ISO numbers.
• When the exposure mode is set to P/A/S and ISO is set to [AUTO], ISO is
automatically set between ISO 100 and ISO 1600.
• The [AUTO] setting is not provided in exposure mode M. If you change the
exposure mode to M with the [AUTO] setting, it is switched to [100]. Set the ISO
according to your shooting conditions.
To change the automatic adjustment range in [AUTO]
When [AUTO] is selected, press B, select [ISO AUTO Maximum] or [ISO
AUTO Minimum], then select the desired range.

with B, and select the desired value with v/V.
• The number is incremented by 1/3 of a step using the rear control dial, with
similar uses as the multi-selector, and it is incremented by 1 step using the
front control dial.
