K 2-12 Metering and Exposure
Adjusting ISO Sensitivity (K ISO)
Select a value according to subject brightness. Higher values let you photograph
darker scenes but also increase image “noise” (mottling). Select [AUTO] to let the
camera adjust sensitivity according to lighting conditions.
• This setting can be accessed via:
- The ISO button
- The LV super control panel (P. 182)
- Live controls (P. 182)
AUTO
Sensitivity is adjusted automatically according to shooting conditions. Use
[K ISO-Auto Set] (P. 183) in G Custom Menu T to choose the maximum
sensitivity selected by the camera and the shutter speed at which auto
sensitivity control takes effect.
L64, L100,
200–25600
Choose a value for ISO sensitivity. ISO 200 offers a good balance between
noise and dynamic range. Choose [L100] or [L64] for larger apertures (higher
f-numbers) or slower shutter speeds. [L64] is equivalent to ISO 64, [L100] to
ISO 100.
• [L64] and [L100] are available at all exposure step values.
• [L64] and [L100] reduce dynamic range.
• Combining values over ISO 8000 with settings that use an electronic shutter (for example,
silent mode or focus bracketing) sets the fl ash sync speed to 1/20 s.
• Regardless of the value selected for ISO sensitivity, the fl ash sync speed for photos taken
using ISO bracketing in silent mode is 1/20 s.
