White balance
The white balance control allows you
to adjust the colours to appear more
natural.
ISO
[Auto] : The camera's sensitivity is
automatically changed by variables
such as lighting value or subject
brightness.
[ISO 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 ] :
You can increase the shutter speed while
the same amount of light is present, by
increasing the ISO sensitivity. However,
the image may be saturated in high luminance.
The higher the ISO value, the higher the camera’s sensitivity to
light and therefore the greater its capacity to take pictures in dark
conditions. However, the noise level in the image will increase as
the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse.
You can select the ISO sensitivity when taking pictures.
The speed or specifi c light-sensitivity of a camera is rated by ISO numbers.
