By default, adjustments to sensitivity are made in increments equivalent to 1 /
3

3
step).
Custom Setting 20 can be used to set the size of the increments to 1 /
2
or 1 step.
Sensitivity raised by roughly two
steps (2 EV) over ISO 1600
Sensitivity raised by roughly one
step (1 EV) over ISO 1600
If possible, the current value for sensitivity is maintained when a new ISO step value is selected.
If the value currently selected for sensitivity is not available at the new ISO step value, sensitivity
will be rounded up to the nearest available setting.

Sensitivity can be raised by roughly one or two steps over ISO 1600 equivalent. If ISO is
selected for Custom Setting 35, or if the ISO button is pressed when Frame Count is se-
lected, the rear control panel will show
