Locking the ISO—ISO setting
Increase the ISO when you want to take pictures in low-light situations with a
fairly high shutter speed. You can select from AUTO, as well as 100, 200 and
400. When you set to AUTO, the sensitivity is automatically changed
depending on the shooting conditions. The higher the ISO, the faster the
shutter speed that can be used and the less light required.

The ISO scale is based on that used for conventional photographic film, but
the figures are for reference only.
●
When set to AUTO, sensitivity will be changed to 100 when the Mode dial
is set to A/S/M.
●
When AUTO is selected, the ISO is automatically increased in low-light
situations when the flash is not used. This is to prevent blurring from
camera shake.
●
Pictures will appear grainy when the ISO is high.
●
Unless OFF is selected in All Reset, the setting will be canceled and reset
to AUTO when the power is turned off (p. 148).
