Correcting Image Brightness (i-Contrast)

Still Images

Movies

Before shooting, excessively bright or dark image areas (such as faces or

backgrounds) can be detected and automatically adjusted to the optimal

brightness. Insufficient overall image contrast can also be automatically

corrected before shooting to make subjects stand out better.

Press the [

] button, choose

[i-Contrast] on the [ ] tab, and then

choose [Auto] (= 29).

Once the setting is complete, [ ] is

displayed.

Under some shooting conditions, correction may be inaccurate or
may cause images to appear grainy.

You can also correct existing images (= 104).

Changing the ISO Speed

Still Images

Movies

Set the ISO speed to [AUTO] for automatic adjustment to suit the shooting

mode and conditions. Otherwise, set a higher value for higher sensitivity,

or a lower value for lower sensitivity.

Press the [ ] button, choose [ ] in the

menu, and choose the desired option

(= 28).

The option you configured is now

displayed.

To view the automatically determined ISO speed when you have
set the ISO speed to [AUTO], press the shutter button halfway.

Although choosing a lower ISO speed may reduce image
graininess, there may be a greater risk of subject and camera
shake in some shooting conditions.

Choosing a higher ISO speed will increase shutter speed, which
may reduce subject and camera shake and increase the flash
range. However, shots may look grainy.
