All choices lead to High ISO

In addition to the variety of semimanual exposure modes, the S700 provides numerous options which deal with low light simply by raising the ISO sensitivity setting. Its Picture Stabilization mode--Mr. Shaky on the mode dial--is a program shift mode with increased sensitivity to enable faster shutter speeds. The N mode ("N" stands for "Natural Light") is a program shift mode with increased sensitivity to enable faster shutter speeds so that you can avoid using Flash. N/Flash sequentially shoots a flash shot and a shot using a program shift mode with increased sensitivity to enable faster shutter speeds so that you can avoid using Flash. SP1 and SP2--Scene Position--allow you to quickly access two different scene modes. Many of those scene modes use some form of ISO shift as well, but the ability to have quick access to two rather than just your last selected scene is a nice use of extra mode-dial real estate.
