Setting the Sensitivity
• [Sensitivity] cannot be used to set the sensitivity when the exposure mode is
set to K (Sensitivity Priority). Turn the e-dial in the status screen to make
the setting. (p.92)
• When n (Stage Lighting) or l (Night Snap) in H (Scene) mode is
selected, Sensitivity is set to AUTO (200-3200) and Expand Dynamic Range
(p.88) is always on.
• Captured images can show more noise if a higher sensitivity is set. You can
reduce image noise by setting [12. High-ISO Noise Reduction] in the
[A Custom Setting 2] menu. (p.89)
• You can set whether to lock the ISO sensitivity adjustment to increments of
1 EV or to coordinate it with the EV Steps (p.105) in [2. Sensitivity Steps] in
the [A Custom Setting 1] menu (p.78).
