ISO Auto

When On is selected for Custom Setting 5 (ISO auto; 142), sensitivity will automati-
cally be adjusted as required for optimal fl ash output. If a high sensitivity is required,
this may result in the background being overexposed when the fl ash is used at slow
shutter speeds (slow sync), fi ll-fl ash is used in bright daylight (daylight sync), or the
background is brightly lit.
