Setting ISO Speed
The ISO setting controls the camera’s sensitivity to light. Use a lower ISO setting
in brightly lit scenes; use a higher ISO setting for low-light scenes.
NOTE: ISO settings are available in Landscape, Close-up, and PAS modes.
Higher ISO speeds may create a picture that is “noisier” than a picture
taken at lower ISO speeds.
1 In any Still mode, press the Menu button.
2 Press to highlight ISO Speed , then press the OK button.
3 Press to highlight an option, then
press the OK button.
AUTO (default)—sets an ISO speed
(100-200) based on scene brightness.
Ideal for general picture taking.
ISO 100—for daylight pictures in bright
sun, when fine detail is needed. Ideal for
portraits or nature scenes.
ISO 200—for cloudy, overcast days.
Ideal when you need extra speed without
sacrificing image quality.
ISO 400—for dusk or night pictures
when flash is prohibited. Ideal for
sporting events and excellent for indoor
shots with or without flash.
4 Press the Menu button to exit the menu.
This setting remains until you change the Mode dial or turn off the
camera; or, if it was set while in PAS mode, until you use Reset
(page 36) to return to the default setting.
