[QUOTE="BrooC, post: 225601, member: 18200"] Hi Nickt, thanks for the reply . .. .I completely understand what the mechanism is working to acheive or help me with, but my query was to do with why it appeared to NOT be doing anything. However, I have now sussed it out ~ I was fiddling with the camera in a couple of indoor situations before (when nothing was changing) but this morning I took it out in the daylight for the first time & whatdya know it works a treat with lots of options! Now that I've thought about it the answer is obvious ~ indoors/poor-light the 5200 was going straight to max ISO & at that was only able to offer me max Ap at slowest (pre selected) hand-held speed, but outdoors in good light the options are produced as described. Initially I was concerned that there may have been a fault, especially since my usual luck seems to be to always get the one item in a million that is dodgy from new! Thanks again.
