Changing the ISO Setting
The sensitivity can be adjusted with the ISO setting. This ISO setting is the equivalent of
the ISO settings performed with traditional SLR cameras which employ film. Three ISO
settings are available with this camera: 80, 160, and 320. Although you can increase the
sensitivity by raising the ISO setting to take pictures of dark subjects, this could cause
the pictures to appear grainy. To prevent poor exposure, we recommend leaving the ISO
setting set for AUTO or 80. With AUTO selected the camera can adjust the ISO setting
automatically only when the intensity of the flash is insufficient. (For most situations,
AUTO selects 80 for the ISO.)
