Specifying ISO Sensitivity
You can change the ISO sensitivity setting for better
images in places where lighting is dim or when you are
using faster shutter speeds.
• ISO sensitivity is expressed in terms of values that
originally indicated the sensitivity to light for photographic
film. A larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is
better for recording when available lighting is dim.

IMPORTANT!
• Under certain conditions, a high shutter speed in
combination with a high ISO sensitivity setting can
cause digital noise (graininess), which makes an
image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images,
use the lowest ISO sensitivity setting possible.
• Using a high ISO sensitivity setting along with the
flash to shoot a nearby subject may result in
improper illumination of the subject.
• “Auto” ISO sensitivity always is used in the following
cases, regardless of the current ISO sensitivity
setting.
Movie mode, Short Movie mode, Past Movie mode,
MOVIE BEST SHOT mode
NOTE
• You can use the key customization feature (page
120) to configure the camera so the ISO sensitivity
setting changes whenever you press [

while in a REC mode.
