1 Press the ISO button to display the ISO screen.
2 Select the desired value with v/V on the multi-selector.
• ISO can be set from [AUTO] and between 100 and 6400.
• ISO numbers that are higher than ISO 3200 increase the appearance of noise.
• You can use the front or rear control dial instead. The number is incremented by 1 step using the front
control dial and it is incremented by 1/3 step using the rear control dial.
• You can substitute the Fn (Function) button for the ISO button (page 30). As in this case above, the
number is incremented by 1 step using the front control dial and it is incremented by 1/3 step using the
rear control dial.
• When ISO is set to [AUTO] and the mode dial is set to P, A, or S, the ISO sensitivity is automatically
adjusted between ISO 200 and ISO 800. You can change the maximum and minimum values with [ISO
Auto max.] and [ISO Auto min.] in the
Recording menu (page 100). If the mode dial is set to M, it is
fixed at ISO 200.
• The built-in flash range (the range within which the correct exposure is provided) depends on the aperture
value and ISO sensitivity. Refer to the following table to determine the shooting distance.
