[QUOTE="J-see, post: 407561, member: 31330"] I don't know how many use this trick already but I'm since some days now. I got annoyed by not having direct ISO control in manual mode or having to disable/enable auto-ISO in menu when using it in manual. What I'm doing now is set auto-ISO enabled and then use exposure compensation in manual. Since my A and S are locked and the cam can't control them, what's the only thing it can adjust? Exactly. For every stop you underexpose, it lowers ISO by a stop, or you can do thirds. Since EV only has five stops, it doesn't work higher than ISO 3200. No more menus or clumsy buttons for ISO if you use this method. This far it always did the job but I'm curious if it will perform identical all the time. Edit: I was just toying with it inside and now suddenly it only reacted when the shot was exposed correctly in the first place. Strange since outside I was constantly underexposing and it did the job as well. [/QUOTE]
