Recording pictures (advanced)

ISO sensitivity represents the sensitivity to
light in values. If you set the ISO sensitivity
higher, the camera becomes more suitable
for recording in dark places.
• When setting to [AUTO], the ISO

sensitivity is automatically adjusted in the
range described below according to the
brightness.
[ISO 80] – [ISO 200]
(It can be adjusted from [ISO100] to
[ISO400] when using the flash. However, it
is fixed to [ISO100] when the flash mode
is set to Slow sync./Red-eye reduction
[

].)

• In simple mode [

], motion image mode

[

] or scene mode (P53), ISO

sensitivity is fixed to [AUTO].

• To avoid picture noise, we recommend

decreasing the ISO sensitivity or setting
[PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. (P66)

If you select a larger picture size, you can
print pictures clearly.
When you select a smaller picture size
(640

k480 pixels), you can store more

pictures on a card though the picture
quality is deteriorated. In addition, it is easy
to attach the picture to an e-mail or post it
on a website because the file size is small.

• For how to playback pictures recorded

using [HDTV] mode on a High-Definition
TV (HDTV has a 16:9 aspect), refer to
P82.

• Both ends of the pictures recorded using

[HDTV] mode may be cut off in printing.
Check the picture before printing. (P96)

• In motion image mode [

], the picture

size is fixed to 320

k240 pixels.

• Pictures may appear like a mosaic

depending on the subject or the recording
condition.

• The number of recordable pictures

depends on the subject.

• The number of remaining pictures may not

correspond with recorded frames.

• Refer to P17 for the number of recordable

pictures.
