ISO sensitivity The higher the ISO value, the greater the camera's light sensitivity and the better its ability to shoot in low light conditions. However, higher values also introduce electrical noise into the resulting image, which may give it a grainy appearance. AUTO 80/100/200/400 Mode dial Sensitivity is automatically adjusted according to the light conditions and the subject brightness. With a lower ISO setting, you can shoot clear, sharp images in daylight. With a higher ISO setting, you can use faster shutter speeds with the same amount of light.

The scale is approximate. • When [ISO] is set to [AUTO] and you are shooting in dark conditions without a flash, the shutter speed is reduced. In this case, the sensitivity is automatically increased to avoid the risk of camera movement. • If the subject is too far away for the flash illumination to reach when [ISO] is set to [AUTO], the sensitivity is automatically increased.
