Hallo,
I have recently joined Nikon seduced by the wonderful 18-200 VR DX lens. However, I am missing the opportunity that the old Pentax gave me and namely the ability to take pictures in low light conditions with a comparatively low ISO settings /ISO 100 for example/. With D3200 set in aperture mode and aperture set to 3.5 and ISO set to AUTO it goes up to 3600 in a cloudy day. If I try to set it ISO manually it gives me shutter speeds of 1 and more seconds that is not acceptable for a handheld photos. I didn't have this kind of a problem with the Pentax K-r which allowed me to do ISO 100 in similar conditions with a decent shutter speed. Is it a matrix difference or am I doing something wrong?
