The maximum value for auto ISO
sensitivity can be selected using
Maximum sensitivity (the minimum
value for auto ISO sensitivity is
automatically set to ISO 100; note that
if the ISO sensitivity selected by the
user is higher than that chosen for Maximum sensitivity, the
value selected by the user will be used instead). In modes P
and A, sensitivity will only be adjusted if underexposure
would result at the shutter speed selected for Minimum
shutter speed (
1
/ 4000–30 s, or Auto; in modes S and M, ISO
sensitivity will be adjusted for optimal exposure at the
shutter speed selected by the user). If Auto is selected, the
camera will choose the minimum shutter speed based on the
focal length of the lens; choosing fast speeds when
photographing fast-moving subjects reduces blur. Press J to
exit when settings are complete.
To choose the maximum ISO sensitivity for photos taken
using the built-in flash or an optional flash unit, use
Maximum sensitivity with M. Selecting Same as without
flash sets the maximum ISO sensitivity for flash photography
to the value currently selected for Maximum sensitivity.
ISO AUTO is displayed when On is
selected. When sensitivity is altered
from the value selected by the user,
these indicators flash and the altered
value is shown in the control panel.
