Animal-Detection AF The eyes of some animals may be adversely affected by the light of the AF-assist illuminator. Choose [Off] for Custom Setting a11 [Built-in AF-assist illuminator]. Simplifying Exposure for Active Dogs or Cats We recommend that you make the following additions to the settings listed on page 47 when photographing active dogs or cats: • Mode: A (aperture-priority auto) • Auto ISO sensitivity control: On • Minimum shutter speed: 1/500 s In mode A, the camera automatically adjusts shutter speed for optimal exposure. The camera automatically raises ISO sensitivity if it determines that shutter speed will fall below the minimum, ensuring that shutter speed is never slower than 1/500 s and allowing the camera to adapt to changes in lighting while minimizing blur due to subject motion. Note that pictures taken at higher ISO sensitivities are prone to "noise" in the form of randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines. 49
