Optimizing the ISO sensitivity for the shutter speed and aperture value

When the ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO], the camera sets the ISO sensitivity
automatically so that the exposure will be appropriate for the shutter speed and aperture
value.

Depending on recording conditions, an appropriate exposure may not be set or the ISO
sensitivity may become higher.

Manual Exposure Assistance

The Manual Exposure Assistance is an approximation. We recommend checking the pictures
on the playback screen.

About [B] (Bulb)

If you set the shutter speed to [B], the shutter stays open while the shutter button is
pressed fully (up to approximately 120 seconds).
The shutter closes if you release the shutter button.
Use this when you want to keep the shutter open for a long time to take pictures of
fireworks, a night scene etc.

If you set the shutter speed to [B], [B] is displayed on the screen.

When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], use a sufficiently charged battery.

When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], noise may become visible. To
avoid picture noise, we recommend setting [Long Shtr NR] in the [Rec] menu to [ON]
