Five camera sensitivity settings can be selected with a still image. The auto setting
automatically adjusts the camera sensitivity to the light conditions between ISO 50 and
ISO 200. The camera sensitivity can also be specified among ISO 50, 100, 200, and 400.
The numerical values are based on an ISO equivalent. As the ISO value doubles, the
camera sensitivity doubles. Noise increases with the sensitivity in digital imaging; the ISO
setting of 50 has the least noise and 400 has the most.
The flash range changes with camera sensitivity. Because of the optical system, the flash
range is not the same at the lens’ wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.

Flash compensation
Flash compensation increases or decreases the flash exposure of the built-in flash in
reference to the ambient exposure by as much as ±1 Ev. See page 54 for more on Ev.
No compensation Negative compensationPositive compensation No flash
When using fill-flash to reduce harsh shadows caused by direct sunlight, flash
compensation changes the ratio between the highlights and shadows. By decreasing the
flash output with a negative Ev setting, the shadows receive less light and are deeper.
Using a positive Ev setting will soften or eliminate shadows.
