High sensitivity is suitable for shooting an object in a dark place or a fast-moving object while minimizing blurring. You can select from the following ISO settings: Auto, Auto-Hi, ISO 80, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, ISO 1600 When ISO setting is set to [Auto], the camera automatically changes the sensitivity according to the distance, brightness, macro settings, and quality/size. When the ISO setting is set to [Auto-Hi] (auto high sensitivity), the sensitivity is automatically set according to the shooting conditions, but the upper limit of the sensitivity can be set higher than in [Auto]. When shooting a dark subject, the shutter speed set in [Auto-Hi] is faster than in [Auto], which may reduce camera shake or blurring of the subject.
