- When [ISO] is set to a value lower than ISO 125, the range for recordable subject brightness (dynamic range) may decrease.
- The higher the ISO value, the more noise will appear on the images.
- The available ISO settings differ between shooting still images and movies.
- When shooting movies, ISO values between ISO 125 and ISO 3200 are available. If the ISO value is set to larger value than ISO 3200, the setting is automatically switched to ISO 3200. When you finished the movie recording, the ISO value returns to the original setting.
- When shooting movies, ISO values between ISO 125 and ISO 3200 are available. If the ISO value is set to a value smaller than ISO 125, the setting is automatically switched to ISO 125. When you finish recording the movie, the ISO value returns to the original setting.
- When you use [Multi Frame NR], it takes some time for the product to perform the overlay processing of images.

Select [ISO AUTO] and press the right side of the control wheel, and set the desired values for [ISO AUTO Maximum] and [ISO AUTO Minimum].
