The ISO User Setting mode allows setting for ISO manual override of the film 
for advanced applications. Under normal conditions, the camera sets the ISO 
film speed for DX-coded films ranging from ISO 25 to 5000 automatically 
(ISO 12 to 6400 for manual override setting).

film speed than that specified for DX-coded films.
