Note

  • [ISO AUTO] is selected when using the following functions:
    • [Intelligent Auto]
    • [Superior Auto]
    • [Scene Selection]
    • [Sweep Panorama]
  • The higher the ISO value, the more noise will appear on the images.
  • When shooting movies, ISO values between ISO 100 and ISO 12800 are available. If the ISO value is set to larger value than ISO 12800, the setting is automatically switched to ISO 12800. When you finished the movie recording, the ISO value returns to the original settings.
  • When you use [Multi Frame NR], it takes some time for the product to perform the overlay processing of images.

Hint

  • You can change the automatically set range of ISO sensitivity in the [ISO AUTO] setting. 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]. The settings [ISO AUTO Maximum] and [ISO AUTO Minimum] are also applied when shooting in [ISO AUTO] mode under [Multi Frame NR].
