You can reduce image blurring in dark locations or with moving subjects by increasing the ISO sensitivity (select a larger number).
Higher ISO settings than [ISO4000] are achieved using Clear Image technology and overlay burst shooting.

The ISO numbers in the table above are the representative value.
Turning the jog dial increases or decreases the ISO sensitivity by increments of 1/3 as follows:
ISO100

ISO sensitivity is a speed rating for recording media that incorporates an image sensor that receives light. Even when the exposure is the same, images differ depending on the ISO sensitivity.
High ISO sensitivity
![](../../../../partimages/ph_iso_01.jpg)
Records a bright image even in dark locations while increasing shutter speed to reduce blur.
However, the image tends to become noisy.
Low ISO sensitivity
![](../../../../partimages/ph_iso_02.jpg)
Records a smoother image.
However, when the exposure is insufficient, the image may become darker.
Notes
-
When the ISO sensitivity is [ISO4000] or higher, it takes some time to record an image because the camera overlays the image. The flash does not operate with these settings.
-
You cannot select [Auto] when the camera is set to Manual Exposure Shooting. [ISO 100] is the default setting.
-
You can select only from [Auto], [ISO 100] to [ISO 800] when the shooting mode is set to burst or bracket shooting mode
