Note
• When setting to [i.AUTO], the camera detects movement of the subject and then sets the
optimal ISO sensitivity and shutter speed according to movement and brightness of the
subject. When the Digital zoom is [ON], the motion detection does not function.
• The ISO sensitivity automatically changes between [ISO1600] and [ISO6400] in [HIGH SENS.]
mode.
• To avoid picture noise we recommend reducing the ISO sensitivity or setting [COLOR MODE]
to [NATURAL]. (P77)
