Optimizing the ISO sensitivity for the shutter speed and aperture value

When the ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO], the camera sets the ISO sensitivity

automatically so that the exposure will be appropriate for the shutter speed and aperture

value.

• Depending on recording conditions, an appropriate exposure may not be set or the ISO

sensitivity may become higher.
