ISO Sensitivity Settings

Adjust ISO sensitivity settings for photographs.

Option	Description
[ISO sensitivity]	Choose from the following settings. Z 7II: Choose from settings of ISO 64 to 25600; the camera also supports settings below ISO 64 by about 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 1 EV (ISO 32 equivalent) and above ISO 25600 by about 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, and 2 EV (ISO 102400 equivalent). Z 6II: Choose from settings of ISO 100 to 51200; the camera also supports settings below ISO 100 by about 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 1 EV (ISO 50 equivalent) and above ISO 51200 by about 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, and 2 EV (ISO 204800 equivalent). b offers an ISO AUTO option.
[Auto ISO sensitivity control]	Highlight [On] and press J to enable auto ISO sensitivity control. If [Off] is selected, [ISO sensitivity] will remain fixed at the value selected by the user. The following options are available when [On] is selected. [Maximum sensitivity]: Choose an upper limit for ISO sensitivity to prevent it being raised too high. [Maximum sensitivity with c]: Choose the upper ISO sensitivity limit for photos taken using an optional flash unit. [Minimum shutter speed]: Choose the shutter speed below which auto ISO sensitivity control will kick in to prevent underexposure in modes P and A. If [Auto] is selected, the camera will choose the minimum shutter speed based on lens focal length. For example, the camera will automatically choose faster minimum shutter speeds to prevent blur caused by camera shake when a long lens is attached. To view auto shutter-speed selection options, highlight [Auto] and press 2. Auto shutter-speed selection can be fine-tuned by choosing faster or slower minimums. Faster settings can be used to reduce blur when photographing fast-moving subjects. Shutter speeds may drop below the selected minimum if optimal exposure cannot be achieved at the ISO sensitivity chosen for [Maximum sensitivity].
