If optimal exposure can not be achieved at ISO sensitivity selected by user, ISO sensitivity is adjusted to compensate, to minimum approximately equivalent to ISO 200 and maximum selected using Max. Sensitivity option. Flash level is adjusted appropriately when flash is used. In exposure modes P and A, ISO sensitivity will be adjusted if photo would be overexposed at shutter speed of 1/8,000 or underexposed at value selected for Min. Shutter Speed. Otherwise camera adjusts ISO sensitivity when limits of exposure metering system are exceeded (mode S) or when optimum exposure can not be achieved at shutter speed and aperture selected by user (mode M).

Setup Custom Settings ISO Auto > On When a flash is used, foreground subjects may be underexposed in photos taken at slow shutter speeds, in daylight, or against a bright background. Choose a flash mode other than slow sync or select mode A or M and choose a larger aperture. If a shooting menu bank in which ISO sensitivity has been set to a value greater than 1600 is chosen after On is selected, ISO sensitivity will not be adjusted automatically. ISO sensitiv- ity will also not be adjusted automatically if a Custom Settings bank in which On is selected is chosen after ISO sensitivity has been set to a value over 1600. 153
