[QUOTE="voxmagna, post: 563899, member: 38477"] Thanks I'd forgotten about the AUTO low shutter setting linked to the zoom focal length. If you do want to use VR you can move that slider to the left a click and move the shutter slower a couple of stops, which VR should take care of. Now I'll go and see what happens if I fit a prime instead of a zoom. OK it's stupid, still falls back to the low setting and isn't clever enough to know if VR is present, on or off to fall back on the 1/focal length rule. For outdoor shots AUTO ISO with auto shutter algorithm does what I'd expect. You set f stop in A priority, ISO starts at minimum 100, the auto shutter cranks down to the slowest setting if there is low light, then ISO is raised. That's fine. Now what's odd is all this with my shoe flash. The ISO I see in the viewfinder is not the ISO used when the flash fires, which you only find out by looking at EXIF after the shot when it can get cranked up to your upper ISO limit and under expose if flash power has maxed out. I suppose that's o.k. but it would be nice if the viewfinder held the shot ISO value for a second. [/QUOTE]
