BSS is recommended for situations in which inadvertent camera movement can
produce blurred pictures, or when parts of the image are prone to under- or over-
exposure. It may not produce the desired results if the subject moves or the com-
position is changed while the shutter-release button is fully pressed.

Sensitivity
Sensitivity is a measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the
sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. Much as fi lm with a high
ISO rating tends to produce “grainy” images, high sensitivities may however be as-
sociated with “noise”—randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels concentrated in
dark parts of the image. Choose from values between ISO 50 and 800 equivalent.
[Auto] is equivalent to ISO 50 under normal conditions; when lighting is poor and
the fl ash is off , the camera compensates by raising Sensitivity to a maximum of ISO
800 equivalent.
