It's really interesting to use. The camera has a range of shutter speeds and 'A'. When the camera is set to manual focus, the ISO set to 'Auto' and the top shutter dial set to 'A', the camera adjusts shutter speed depending on aperture set on the lens. The auto-ISO seems top operate within a reasonable tolerance and gives optimum ISO for the lighting. It works. Or set the shutter speed and view the match-needle in the EVF to adjust aperture for correct exposure. The amazing thing is that the EVF stays at constant high brightness no matter what aperture is set - it is compensating for the low light levels passing through to the sensor (at low aperture settings like say f22) yet still gives correct exposure at shutter press. How is it doing that!! In a dark room at low iris, the noise in the EVF kicks in as it struggles to maintain a dectn image to compose and focus with, but in a dark room (single lit bulb on ceiling) with f/22 I'm amazed i can see anything at all thru the EVF... -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
