ISO Speed Submenu
Note: The option you set is active from shot-to-
shot; it resets to its default setting when you
cycle the power on the camera.
Use the ISO Speed submenu to set the ISO speed. Similar to film, slower ISO speeds require longer
exposures, but produce higher quality images. In contrast, faster ISO speeds allow for shorter
exposures, but produce noisier images. You can select from these setting options:

The ISO Speed submenu is only available for Auto and Aperture Priority exposure modes. When the
exposure mode is set to Landscape Program, Portrait Program, Action Program, or Shutter Priority,
the ISO Speed submenu is grayed-out and the ISO Speed is set to Auto.
