AUTO (default)— when you turn the Mode Dial to P (fully
automatic) the camera selects this option and automatically sets an
ISO speed based on scene brightness. Ideal for general picture taking.

ISO 100—ideal for daylight still pictures in bright sun, when fine
detail is needed. Great for portraits, or nature scenes. When shooting
in Manual or Aperture Priority modes, the camera applies an ISO
speed of 100.
m
ISO 200—ideal for cloudy overcast days. Great when you need extra
speed without sacrificing image quality.
m
ISO 400—ideal for dusk, or night pictures when flash is prohibited;
great for pictures at sporting events when you need to stop the action;
and excellent for indoor shots, with or without flash.
