The option you configured is now
displayed.

AUTO

Automatically adjusts the ISO speed to suit the
shooting mode and conditions.

100, 200

Low

High

For shooting outdoors in fair weather.

400, 800

For shooting in cloudy conditions, or at
twilight.

1600

For shooting night scenes, or in dark
rooms.

To view the automatically determined ISO speed when you have set the ISO
speed to [AUTO], press the shutter button halfway.

Although choosing a lower ISO speed may reduce image graininess,
there may be a greater risk of subject and camera shake in some shooting
conditions.

Choosing a higher ISO speed will increase shutter speed, which may reduce
subject and camera shake and increase the flash range. However, shots may
look grainy.

Correcting Image Brightness (i-Contrast)

Before shooting, excessively bright or dark image areas (such as faces or
backgrounds) can be detected and automatically adjusted to the optimal

brightness. Insufficient overall image contrast can also be automatically
corrected before shooting to make subjects stand out better.
