ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive film is to light. A greater
value means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for
shooting an object in a dark place or a fast-moving object while
minimizing blurring.
You can choose from the following ISO settings:

AUTO, ISO 64, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, and ISO 1600.

When ISO setting is set to [AUTO], the camera automatically
changes the sensitivity according to the distance, brightness, zoom,
macro and picture quality/size settings. Usually, use the camera in
the [AUTO] mode.
If you do not want to allow the camera to change the ISO sensitivity,
select an ISO setting other than [AUTO].
