Custom Setting 31: ISO Boost
This setting is used to raise sensitivity (ISO equivalency) roughly
one to two steps (1–2 EV) above the maximum setting, which
is approximately equivalent to IS0 1600. This option is inde-
pendent of the setting chosen with the ISO button or shoot-
ing menu. Sensitivity boost can be used to obtain higher shut-
ter speeds at night-time sporting events, for example, or to
prevent underexposure when photographing poorly-lit subjects. Note, however,
that sensitivity boost increases the amount of “noise” (a mottling effect similar to the
effects of grain in high-speed film) that appears in the final photograph.
