The ISO setting corresponds to the ISO value of conventional film and indicates sensitivity
to light.
The ISO can be set to AUTO, 100, 200, 400 or 800, with the image quality deteriorating as
the number increases. Increasing the camera’s sensitivity to light allows you to take pictures
in dark locations or use fast shutter speeds. It also slightly increases the effective range of
the flash. The default ISO setting is AUTO, in which case the camera sets the ISO
sensitivity to suit the ambient conditions.
7 The selected setting ([LT4S], etc.) appears on
the LCD monitor.
