Optimising 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.
Manual Exposure Assistance
• The Manual Exposure Assistance is an approximation. We recommend checking the pictures
on the playback screen.

activate the front/rear dial settings. At positions other than [A], the ring setting takes priority.
