The auto setting automatically adjusts the camera sensitivity to the light conditions
between ISO 100 and 400. As the ISO value doubles, the camera sensitivity doubles; a
change of one Ev. Like grain in silver-halide film that increases with speed, noise
increases with sensitivity in digital imaging; an ISO setting of 100 has the least noise and
3200 has the most.
A change in ISO also affects the flash range. The flash range depends on the aperture
used:
ISO setting
100
1.0 ~ 4.3m / 3.3 ~ 14.1ft.
200
1.0 ~ 6.0m / 3.3 ~ 20ft.
400 / AUTO
1.4 ~ 8.6m / 4.6 ~ 28ft.
800
2.0 ~ 12m / 6.6 ~ 39ft.
1600
2.8 ~ 17m / 9.2 ~ 56ft.

4.0 ~ 24m / 13 ~ 79ft.
* Activated with the ISO-menu-setup option in section 4 of the custom menu (p. 100).
CAMERA SENSITIVITY - ISO
Seven settings can be selected for camera
sensitivity: Auto, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, and
3200*. The numerical values are based on the film
ISO equivalent: the higher the number, the more
sensitive the film.
Press the ISO button (1) to open the setup screen.
The left/right keys of the controller and the control
dials change the setting.
Press the central button of the controller or the
shutter-release button to complete the operation.
