 ISO  Setting
ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive film is to light. A greater value 
means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for shooting an 
object in a dark place or a fast-moving object while minimizing 
blurring. When ISO setting is set to [Auto], the camera automatically 
changes the sensitivity according to the distance, brightness, zoom, 
macro settings, and picture quality/size. Choose settings other than 
[Auto] to fix ISO sensitivity at the selected value.
The upper limit for auto ISO sensitivity can 
be selected using the [Maximum ISO for 
ISO Auto] in the shooting menu (GP.77). 
If ISO sensitivity is assigned to the ADJ./OK 
button (GP.46), the upper limit for auto 
ISO sensitivity can be chosen by pressing 
the DISP. Button when [Auto] is selected.
 Note 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
•  When [Auto] is selected for ISO sensitivity, the camera will select an ISO 
sensitivity between 100 and the value selected for [Maximum ISO for ISO Auto].
•  If the flash is set to [Auto], the flash will fire if optimal exposure can not be 
achieved at the sensitivity selected for [Maximum ISO for ISO Auto].
•  Images shot with a higher sensitivity may appear grainy.
•  When [Auto] is selected for ISO sensitivity, the ISO value displayed when the 
shutter release button is pressed halfway may in some instances (for example, 
when the flash is used) differ from the value selected when the shutter is released.
