Description

Setting the ISO speed (EOS M10)

Solution

Raise the [ISO speed] to use a fast shutter speed when you wish to reduce the effects of camera shake or avoid blurry subjects, or to turn the flash off when shooting in a dark area.
Also, with [ISO AUTO] selected, you can set the maximum ISO speed, or select the rate of change.
REFERENCE
Shooting sensitivity increases as the ISO speed goes up. The lower the speed, the lower the sensitivity.

Setting the ISO Speed

IMPORTANT
  • The following section explains the setting procedures when the camera’s shooting mode has been set to [Program AE] ().
  • To set the [ISO Speed], it is necessary to set the [Shooting Mode] to one of the following modes.
- [Manual] (), [Aperture Priority AE] (), [Shutter Speed Priority AE] (), [Program AE] (), [Manual Movie] ().

1. Press the power button to turn the camera on.

2. Touch [ISO], press the [ ], [ ] buttons or turn the <> dial to choose the ISO speed, then press the <> button.




3. The option you configured is now displayed. (The [ISO Speed] has been set to 400 in the example image below.)

NOTE
  • Although choosing a lower ISO speed may reduce image graininess, there may be a greater risk of subject and camera shake in some shooting conditions.
  • Choosing a higher ISO speed will increase shutter speed, which may reduce subject and camera shake and increase the flash range. However, shots may look grainy.
This can also be adjusted by going to [ISO speed] in the [- 3] tab of the menu and selecting [ISO speed].
If you want to select speeds up to [H] (equivalent to ISO 25600), go to the menu, choose [C.Fn I:Exposure] from the [ - 1] tab, and set [ISO Expansion] to [1: On].
