Shooting Options: The Shooting Menu E ISO Sensitivity Sensitivity is a measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the sensitivity, the more effective it is to shoot in dark places or moving subjects, but the image taken will appear slightly grainy. Auto (default setting) Sensitivity is ISO 64 in bright places; in dark places the camera automatically raises sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 800. If Auto is set when D is selected with the mode dial, the ISO sensitivity is fixed to 64. High ISO sensitivity auto The ISO sensitivity is set automatically within the range of ISO 64 to 1600 according to the brightness of the subject. If High ISO sensitivity auto is set when D is selected with the mode dial, the ISO sensitivity is fixed to 64. Fixed range auto Choose the range in which the camera automatically adjusts ISO sensitivity, from ISO 64-100 (default setting), ISO 64-200, or ISO 64-400. The camera will not raise sensitivity beyond the maximum value in the selected range. Set the maximum value for ISO sensitivity for effective control over the amount of "grain" that appears in images. If Fixed range auto is set when D is selected with the mode dial, the ISO sensitivity is fixed to 64. 64, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 2000, 3200, 6400 Sensitivity will be locked at the specified value. At the settings other than Auto, the current setting is displayed in the monitor (A8). If Auto is selected and the sensitivity is raised above ISO 64, the E icon will be displayed (A34). When High ISO sensitivity auto is selected, V is displayed. When Fixed range auto is selected, U and the maximum ISO sensitivity value are displayed. B Notes on ISO 3200 and 6400 • The image size will display in red during shooting if ISO sensitivity is set to 3200 or 6400. • 3200 or 6400 cannot be set for ISO sensitivity when Image quality (A124) is set to NRW (RAW), NRW (RAW) + Fine, NRW (RAW) + Normal or NRW (RAW) + Basic. ISO sensitivity will be set to Auto when Image quality (A124) is set to NRW (RAW), NRW (RAW) + Fine, NRW (RAW) + Normal or NRW (RAW) + Basic while ISO sensitivity is set to 3200 or 6400. • When ISO sensitivity is set to 3200 or 6400, Image size (A126) cannot be set to N 4224×3168, E 3264×2448, D 2592×1944, I 4224×2816, G 4224×2376, and H 3168×3168. At these image size settings, selecting 3200 or 6400 for ISO sensitivity automatically switches the image size setting to C 2048×1536. When any option other than 3200 or 6400 is next selected for ISO sensitivity, the original image size setting is restored. • At an ISO sensitivity setting of 3200 or 6400, the Multi-shot 16 (A140) option of the continuous shooting mode is not available. When Continuous is set to Multi-shot 16, selecting 3200 or 6400 for ISO sensitivity switches the setting to Single, and Single will not be changed even if 138 changed to modes other than 3200 or 6400.
