Setting ISO Sensitivity
The ISO setting sets the cameras sensitivity to light. The ISO setting can be 
increased when you need to take pictures in places where a flash may not be 
allowed. The overall picture quality will decrease slightly as the ISO setting is 
increased.

¬Suggestions/Tips ¬
• In Simple mode [
]/Motion image 
mode [
], ISO sensitivity is fixed to 
[AUTO].
• To avoid noises, we recommend 
decreasing the ISO sensitivity or 
setting [PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. 
(P72)
• For the shutter speed, refer to P41.
• When the ISO sensitivity is set to 
[ISO400], you cannot use the burst 
mode. (DMC-LC80)
• When the ISO sensitivity is set to 
[ISO400], the recording interval may 
become longer due to the process to 
reduce picture noises. (DMC-LC80)
