Taking Pictures and Recording Video Clips

If the setting is anything other than the default Auto setting,

the icon for the setting (in the previous table) will appear in

the Live View screen. The new setting remains in effect until it

is changed again or until the camera is turned off. The White

Balance setting resets to the default Auto setting when you

turn the camera off.

ISO Speed

This setting adjusts the sensitivity of the camera to light.

When ISO Speed is set to the default Auto setting, the

camera selects the best ISO speed for the scene.
Lower ISO speeds will capture the best quality images with

the least amount of grain (or noise), but result in slower

shutter speeds. If taking a picture in low light conditions

without a flash at ISO 100, you may want to use a tripod. In

contrast, higher ISO numbers allow faster shutter speeds,

and can be used when taking pictures in dark areas

without a flash, or when taking pictures of fast moving

objects. Higher ISO speeds produce pictures with more grain

(or noise).

Tungsten

The camera balances color based on

incandescent or halogen lighting (typically

found in homes).

Fluorescent

fluorescent lighting.
