I'm assuming you're still talking about having your camera in Manual Mode, because that makes a difference. In Manual, with Auto ISO enabled, you adjust shutter speed and aperture with the two command wheels. Auto-ISO will select the lowest possible ISO (within the range you have specified) that will also give proper exposure with the shutter speed and aperture you have selected. The meter at the bottom indicates how close you are to what the camera thinks is proper exposure based on all three settings (shutter speed, aperture and ISO).If you use the Exposure Compensation button the Auto-ISO function will be over-ridden by this manual adjustment of yours to give you an exposure adjustment of up to three stops based on your input. The Auto-ISO function is always ready to work but if you choose to use the EC button, doing so will over ride the menu function. It makes sense if you think about it (or at least it does to me): You're telling the camera, "Hey, I'll handle the shutter speed and aperture so I have full creative control over things like motion blur (via shutter speed control) and depth of field (via aperture control); I just need you to make sure I get decent exposure no matter what those settings are." The camera does... UNTIL you say, in effect and by pressing the Exposure Compensation button, "I know I told you to handle the ISO portion of this but I need to compensate for some back lighting... Under expose these shots by one full stop (-1EV) until I say otherwise." And the camera will do so... By adjusting the ISO from what was needed for "correct" exposure to an ISO setting that will under expose by one full stop/1EV.I hope that helps clarify......</blockquote>
