[ INTELLIGENT ISO]
Changing ISO sensitivity
automatically
The camera detects the movement of the
subject and then sets the optimal ISO
sensitivity and shutter speed according to the
movement and the brightness of the subject.
The settings listed below indicates the
selectable highest ISO sensitivity.
OFF Intelligent ISO does not work.
ISO MAX400 [MAX] shows the maximum
level of ISO sensitivity.
The ISO sensitivity

ISO MAX1600
[ ] displays when you press the shutter
button halfway. If you press it fully, the
shutter speed and ISO sensitivity will be
displayed.
Jitter is avoided when taking pictures indoors
of a moving subject by increasing the ISO
sensitivity and making the shutter speed
faster. (However, picture noise will increase.)
Noise is avoided when taking pictures
indoors of a subject with no movement by
decreasing the ISO sensitivity.
Depending on the brightness and how
fast the subject is moving, jitter may not
be avoided.
When the moving subject is small
When the moving subject is at the edge
of the screen
When the subject starts moving the
instant the shutter button is pressed fully
If picture noise becomes a problem, we
recommend setting the maximum ISO
sensitivity to low level, setting the [NOISE
REDUCTION] of [PICT.ADJ.] to high
level, or setting each of the items other
than [NOISE REDUCTION] to low level.
The digital zoom cannot be used.
