ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive film is to light. A greater
value means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for
shooting an object in a dark place or a fast-moving object while
minimizing blurring.
You can select from the following ISO settings:
Auto, Auto-Hi, ISO 64, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, and
ISO 1600.
When ISO setting is set to [Auto], the camera automatically
changes the sensitivity according to the distance, brightness, zoom,
macro settings, and picture quality/size. Usually, use the camera in
the [Auto] mode.
When the ISO setting is set to [Auto-Hi] (auto high sensitivity), the
sensitivity is automatically set according to the shooting conditions
but a higher upper limit than in [Auto] can be set. When shooting a
dark subject, the shutter speed set in [Auto-Hi] is faster than in
[Auto], which may reduce camera shake or blurring of the subject.
The maximum ISO setting for [Auto-Hi] is specified in the Setup
menu. (GP.149)
If you do not want to allow the camera to change the ISO sensitivity,
select an ISO setting other than [Auto] or [Auto-Hi].
