i : Setting the ISO SpeedN
If the ISO speed is set to “A”, the actual
ISO speed to be set will be displayed
when you press the shutter button
halfway. As indicated below, the ISO
speed will be set automatically to suit the
shooting mode.
*1: Depending on the maximum ISO speed that has been set.
*2: If fill flash results in overexposure, ISO 100 or a higher ISO will be set.
*3: In the <d> and Basic Zone modes (except <6>), ISO 400 - 1600 will be set
automatically if bounce flash is used with an external Speedlite. If the
maximum ISO speed has been set to [400] or [800], the ISO speed will be set
within this limit.
For Auto ISO, you can set the maximum ISO speed within ISO 400 -
6400. If you want better image quality with less noise, set the maximum
ISO speed to 400, 800, or 1600. If you will shoot in low light and want to
avoid using a slow shutter speed, set the maximum ISO speed to 3200
or 6400.
Under the [y] tab, select [ISO Auto],
then press <0>. Select the ISO speed,
then press <0>.
