Selecting the ISO sensitivity [ISO]
K CAMERA MENU  ISO
: P A S M r
A method for indicating film speed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) (e.g.
“ISO100”).
In the ISO setting, although smaller values result in less sensitivity, sharp images can be taken under
fully lit conditions. Larger values result in higher sensitivity, and images can be taken at fast shutter
speeds even under dimly lit conditions. High sensitivity introduces electronic noise into the resulting
picture, which may give it a grainy appearance.
Submenu 2 Application
AUTO The camera automatically adjusts the sensitivity according to the shooting scene.
HIGH ISO AUTO
The camera automatically adjusts to a higher sensitivity than [AUTO] to reduce
blurring caused by camera shake and motion of the subject.
64/100/200/400/800/1600/
3200/6400
Set ISO sensitivity to a numerical value.
If set to [3200] [6400], [IMAGE SIZE] is limited to [H] or lower.
The ISO setting of [3200] [6400] is not available when [FINE ZOOM] (p. 33) or [DIGITAL ZOOM]
(p. 33) is set to [ON].
[AUTO], [HIGH ISO AUTO] is not available when M mode is selected.
