Taking pictures in low light conditions (ISO) 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 picture, which may give it a grainy appearance. AUTO 50/100/200/400 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 shoot in dark places. Top menu [MODE MENU] [CAMERA] [ISO] g"How to use the menus" (P. 16) 4 1 Select [AUTO], [50], [100], [200], or [400], and press Z.
