88 Menu Guide / Custom Settings
5: No Memory Card? (All Modes)
If Release locked (the default setting) is selected, the shutter-release
is disabled when no memory card is inserted. Choose Enable release
to enable the shutter-release button when no memory card is inserted.
Photographs will be displayed in the monitor but will not be saved.
6: Image Review (All Modes)
If On (the default setting) is selected, photographs will automatically
be displayed in the monitor for about for seconds after shooting. If Off
is selected, photographs can be displayed in the monitor by pressing
the button.
7: ISO Auto (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)
If Off (the default setting) is selected, ISO sensitivity will remain fi xed at
the value selected with the ISO button ( 43) or using the ISO sensitiv-
ity option in the shooting menu ( 83).
If On is selected, ISO sensitivity will automatically be adjusted if optimal exposure can not be
achieved at the selected value (fl ash level is adjusted appropriately). The maximum value for
auto ISO sensitivity can be selected using the Max. sensitivity option. In modes P and A,
sensitivity will only be adjusted if underexposure would result at the shutter speed selected
for Min. shutter speed.
When On is selected, the control panel and viewfi nder show ISO-AUTO.
When sensitivity is altered from the value selected by the user, these
indicators blink and the altered value is shown in the viewfi nder (the
indicators do not blink if a fl ash is used.
ISO Auto
Auto ISO control is not available when a value over ISO 1600 is selected for ISO sensitivity. ISO sen-
sitivity can not be set to values over 1600 when On is selected for ISO auto. Foreground subjects
may be underexposed in photos taken with the fl ash at slow shutter speeds, in daylight, or against a
bright background. Choose a fl ash mode other than slow sync or select mode A or M and choose a
larger aperture.
Noise is more likely at higher sensitivities. Use the High ISO NR option in the shooting menu to
reduce noise (
83).
