[QUOTE="fiVe, post: 232266, member: 17614"] As I've said before, I have graduated to the D610 from a Canon T1i crop body, and I realize there is much to learn about this new Nikon. I have a question about the D610's auto ISO setting. I have done several test shots in my kitchen/breakfast nook. This is a open area that is lit on the nook side by incandescent lights and on the kitchen side by a big flourescent light--so it is mixed lighting. The camera almost always selects ISO 6400 for these test pics and they are over-exposed. Am I missing something obvious here? On the Shooting Menu, the ISO sensitivity settings are: ISO sensitivity 100 Auto ISO sensitivity control ON Maximum sensitivity 6400 Minimum shutter speed AUTO I realize I could force the ISO to a lower setting, but I'm curious about why the camera would select 6400 when the lighting, while not studio quality, is by no means low. I realize it's not an accurate comparison, but the T1i will shoot the pics at 1600. Two other questions-- When shooting at 300mm with the above lighting, the ISO is always 6400. When reviewing the pics, ISO is many times displayed in red (vs. white). What does a red ISO denote? Thanks for your help. I realize I'm on a photography journey which takes time, but I want to learn all I can. R/fiVe [/QUOTE]
